Are PIP Results Really Predetermined?

Literally can’t sleep at night. I joined XOM last March and didnt have the MAC one, so it’s my first ranking experience. From what I’m seeing in posts here and hearing in the office, people seem surprised by being PIPed and say the outcomes are predetermined. Is that actually how it works? Do most people experience the same thing?


Member Protection or Leader Protection?

Why do I have to talk to multitudes of people and teams across Member Protection and Risk to update my control? Why does every change go through “review” by people who don’t have anything to do with my process? Why does it take me longer to educate 383, 829 people I’m required to talk to about a change I need than it takes for me to make the change and update the control? I have a risk partner why can’t they make the change like they do everywhere else in the Bank? Are we protecting the members or are we creating made up roles to make an executive feel good? What happened to simplifying and streamlining? How much money is spent on salaries for every change and how is that justified when there are many real, impactful changes that money can be spent on instead?


How the he-l does it actually go down???

Can someone explain how these layoffs actually get determined? I feel like it’s just purely cost, but based on how pointless and anti productive it has ended up being I’m not sure if they actually give it any thought. Manager has been giving us the standard BS. (Saying a lot without actually saying anything) lol.


Should I be worried

We are a team of six engineers. Last year, I got a great project I successfully delivered. This year, all but me were given projects and I feel like I am just slacking, doing the miscellaneous stuff. Nothing significant on my plate. Am I being pushed out?
