Just got PIP at AWS after 4 months onboarding plan.
Sorry if I am not being clear. I am shocked and highly upset with the lies. I am of with being let go but honestly. So this came as a surprise. Manager was distant to begin with, really terrible. Put me in dev plan after 3 months. Started failing me on my dev plan on purpose. First would Say did great then on Fridays would tell me you didn’t do well. Same happened the week after.
After that manager started being rude lately. Then got PIPed. I have 5 days to accept the offer or go through a 1 month dev plan. And if I fail I get 33% of amount. If I appeal and fail then I get 16% of the amount. I am willing to work but I don’t believe they want to keep me. So don’t want to further crush my confidence. I have 16 plus years work experience.
I can easily get a new job in a few weeks. It’s just that I feel that this is unfair and really angry and upset with the lies.
Want to spread the news that it’s one of the worst places to work in so if you get competing offers use AWS offer to negotiate but stay away.
I have been given 5 days to accept compensation should I wait or leave immediately?

Be very careful when providing deadlines.
And always be on the lookout for “fake urgencies” then verify with product/business folk if there fake or not.
This is why I only join teams that use an Agile methodology.
Don’t join a team where the manager dumps a large long-term project on you and then asks for timelines!
Only join teams that have a Jira ticket/sprint-points based approach to projects so that your performance is easily quantifiable each sprint (basically weekly). And your manager is closely invested and responsible for each project because it’s ticket/sprint-points based.
