I always believed a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) was meant to help an employee grow. But reality hit differently.

Some were put on a PIP without any prior warnings, no clear expectations, and no proper guidance. It felt less like a performance correction and more like a personal vendetta. The same managers who failed to support or understand challenges were quick to question, criticize, and push into PIP mode — just to show power or settle scores.

Performance issues should be handled with constructive feedback and mentorship. But in some companies, especially under insecure leadership, PIP becomes a silent weapon to corner individuals or force resignations.

Career Advice

I work in Nagarro as a Software Engineer.
It's been a little more than 2 years since I joined as a fresher. Salary hikes are not impressive. Trash projects, nobody knows where the company is going. I've been working with really bad liars for the past 2 years. Everyone in this company seems to be treating it as their retirement plan because they offer work from home.

I work on python automation POCs and my team is one of those "Agile" ones with no direction. It can be renamed as "Team ADHD". Their plans change every 4 hours and none of them are engineers, they are consultants (manchilds or scammers would be a good word).

I'm also not able to get other job offers, Hardly got 2 interviews after hundreds of applications across multiple platforms. I do see other people getting better roles in better companies. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm attaching *one of my resumes* in case someone wants to help me out.

Not sure if I should continue

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

One of our colleagues was so enraged because our manager was forcing the employee to work a rotational shift and making him work hard.
We can all see he was too hard on him, but we thought it was part of work and our manager's behavior with everyone....... 
That person went so much into rage that he poisoned extra caffeine in our manager's coffee. He is old, suddenly collapsed after one drink, the blood pressure shooted but after drinking water, he got normal.............. That's what they call the taste of his own blood. Also, a colleague left the job after all this drama.

is it what managers want now? Waiting to get poisoned?

From penny-pinching to investing, let's talk money moves that would make Warren Buffett proud.

Personal Finance

On paper, it sounds like a dream 25 lakhs per annum. But after taxes, rent in metros, EMIs, family support, and lifestyle inflation, how much are you really “keeping”?

We glamorise CTC numbers without looking at what they mean month-to-month. A 25 lpa package could leave you with less breathing room than someone earning 15 lpa with smart planning and fewer liabilities.

So maybe it’s time to stop judging financial success purely by income. What matters more: your CTC or your peace of mind at the end of each month?

Is a 25lpa salary really “rich” anymore?
