Does Snap have forced PIP or not?

A while back there were several posts that Snap was enforcing a bottom 10% PIP quota and it was mentioned in a big meeting. These posts were from Snap employees. Now those posts seem to have been deleted which is very suspicious. Seems like HR might have flagged those posts. Can Blind help us find out the truth?

    We don't have forced pip.. we do want to pip the coasters and underperformers though, just like any company.

    Every time someone talks about pip at Snap, a Microsoft person pops up spewing misinformation. It's rather comical 😁.

    For the nth time, there is no forced pip at Snap, no stupid demands like 2 week ramp up time. There is a 10% low performer categorization and you will likely be pipped if you are not adding anything noteworthy.

      There is no such thing called 2 week ramp up time. I don't know the details around this 2 week firing thing or whether it even happened or not. Every company which has gone through volatile stock movement will have disgruntled employees advising against joining the company.

    • If there's a forced quota, individual managers will make up excuses to throw someone under the bus, like not ramping up fast enough.

    Forced PIP? YES!

    I got PIPd and the documentation is a joke. I got thrown under the bus by a psycho and now that HR is involved it’s just a soulless unyielding process.

    I’m sure some engineers with low contribution do need some more motivating, but that is certainly not my case.

  • The truth is that they have forced 10% low performance, 70% of those will be piped out, 30% will be piped later. The problem is that it’s forced rank, so a lot of ppl got hit because they are not doing as fast as others. However, those guys from snap saying that they don’t have forced pip are HR.

      Snap doesn't have any quota, we are just cautious of folks not doing enough - if you do what's expected of you then you don't need to fear it
