Getting a pip after 5 months as a 1st year in tax
For context I work for a top 20 firm and started in January. Right after busy season a few 1st years in my starting class were let go and immediately after my performance started getting brought up. Now I’m scheduled to have a meeting regarding a pip. To be fair i understand I’m not the best at my job but is it even possible to meet “expectations” in a busy season environment with no training? How do I approach this situation knowing that the outcome will almost certainly result in me being let go? The timing is a little odd as well as there is a new class starting soon and it seems they are just keeping me around until they have new staff to take over my workload. For example I’m staffed on one of our largest clients working charging 40-45 hours a week. Am I overreacting to this or am I just being used ?
