Yeah, I had a manager PIP me out once like that. I was required to work until midnight to hit a deadline, then get on a call until 3am with the contractors in India, and when my butt wasn't back in the office chair by 8:30am the next day, I was written up for being late. Another warning came from refusing to stay more than 3 hours late one night (unplanned overtime) because I had plans that night, which made me 'not a team player'. After those two warnings, it only took me being randomly 5 minutes late one day for the third and final. Oddly enough, after we 'mutually agreed to terminate my employment' there, I got a call from the director of another department offering me a job in his department and, most surprisingly, a really glowing recommendation on LinkedIn from the very manager that fired me. I don't claim to understand it. But I do understand why the company had such high turnover, and why the guy I had been hired to replace had gone on mental health leave and just never came back.
