This is text book retaliation. Amazon and defendants about to open up the check book to the tune of at least $1M.
If it goes to court (unlikely?), can easily become multimillion dollar settlement while airing out Amazon’s dirty laundry in open court.
- treprinum 3y agoIs it retaliation or Amazon just being Amazon, PIPing everyone when the directive from above lands? It's a two year company anyway (they don't want people to vest most of their stocks and the amount vested in the first two years is small).
- tivert 3y ago> Is it retaliation It looks like they put her on a PIP with an obviously impossible goal, so it sure does look like that. > or Amazon just being Amazon That's an excuse for nothing, btw. And if this is somehow "Amazon just being Amazon," then that seems ample justification for burning the whole company to the ground, to punish the shareholders and as a warning to others.
- treprinum 3y agoTeamBlind is full of stories of star performers getting PIPed for no reason at Amazon so I am not sure it would be viewed as retaliation given it's "normal" over there. I would be happy if somebody started a fire under their asses though. They seem to attract the worst of the worst managers that in turn destroy their next companies.
- marcinzm 3y ago> It looks like they put her on a PIP with an obviously impossible goal, so it sure does look like that. Isn’t that the norm for PIPs in tech companies?
- lithos 3y agoIt is Amazon being Amazon, leadership is raised on a culture of reprisals and pettiness.
