I was told I was being given a written warning for poor performance. There was no investigation - I was literally called into a room and told that that was the outcome. Apparently customers had complained about me as well and said they didn't want me working for them. I have been shown no proof to this however.
I was told I would receive a letter from HR to this effect. I received this letter which stated I had 5 days to appeal from the date of the letter - the letter was given to me on day 4.
I pulled together an appeal letter and gave it to the MD of our department. Company handbook said I had to appeal to MD of the company but our company does not actually have an MD so this was a bit confusing. As it was all done very rushed I addressed letter to the MD.
MD came back within about 24-48 hours with a letter stating that my diciplinary stands.
A month on I have met the objectives on the list of targets but I have been told that my work is still not good enough and that more things have come to light about my poor performance.
I agree that there are some negative things but I work as part of a team and I am the one being held accountable, despite others being involved. They claim more clients want to not work with me which I don't 100% believe as those clients have continued to contact me which seems to make no sense!
In this latest meeting I have been given the option to either resign or be given a final written warning. I am so confused as to what to do. If I hand in my notice I will get my usual notice period apparently. I will also be given a good reference I have been told.
I know they have gone against their own procedures as well as good practice guidelines but feel at a loss as to what to do.
I am also now on anti-depressants and panic tablets. I have also been prescribed sleeping pills. Not sure if that's relevant but thought I should mention.
Any advice and help between now and Monday would be so appreciated. I feel awful.
