This feels exactly how firing at most companies without firing fast works. Whether Gill is a standup upstart decent worker, or ehether maybe yeah Gill isnt really fitting in. There's no process, no review, no structure, and more and more people using gossip & feel to decide where they stand on Gill, & whether or not he's worth a lick or semi productive or mostly not competemt. Doubt circles all of us, almost all of us, to some degree; even the best as they encounter strong & weak situations for them. When doubts start flying many teammates semi-covertly hide it, many attempt politeness, ignorance, keeping it to ourselves. But the picture just gets clearer & clearer, more & more apparent, & oh-they-were-underperforming Gill keeps feeling more pressure to quit.
The structurelessness & lack of a system, pressuring someone out, is no favor for Gill, but it seems like how it usually works.
- zcw100 5y agoSounds like you and Gill should get along great.
- rektide 5y agosounds like you are being very rude. i've seen 1 person in my career put on a performance improvement plan & let go. i've seen 5 fall out of general favor & get driven off. feels very lopsided & hard to see, grapple with. dont appreciate your malice.
