WWYD - Going to be put on a PIP, should I just resign?

[reallyconfus3d]

I have been told I am going to be put on PIP based on my performance over the last few months. I don't think the assessment is totally fair but it's true I have struggled with some aspects of work because of stress/burn out. Critically, I am not getting on too well with fairly new manager. Lately, I felt they were starting to manage me out. I was already planning to find myself another job in the new year, I just would have preferred to have a new job lined up before resigning. I can support myself for a while. Part of me wants to see what the PIP is about and maybe even go through to show that actually I am totally capable to do my job, parts of me thinks it's just a waste of time because they have already made up their mind (I have no proof they have just gut feeling). Should I just just resign when back in January?

@reallyconfus3d what did you do? I only work part time in my 20s. Im cery private dont work my work knowing about pip. My manager will gossip to everyone :( x

@Hipnotised did they get hold of your work? X

@Starrrz sorry, I don't understand?

I passed the PIP, am still there - awful manager left - and I'm back to loving the job again. Good luck!

@Hipnotised oo thats great :)
so im applying for pip, but if my manager finds out that i get pip. She will tell people as gossip. Did your work keep it just between you twoo. Im a very privaperson. I dont mind them getting hold of my gp as thats very herlpful. X

@Starrrz I think you are confusing two things. It looks like you are talking about Personal Independence Payments.
This thread is about performance improvement plans.

@Starrrz as pp says, there are 2 kinds of PIP.

One is to do with money.

This one, your one, is a performance improvement plan. Your manager will know about it.
