[03:39]	TR News	"my manager says I dont perform at band level and I offered to go down a level and he said it wasnt being offered as an option"
[03:40]	TR News	"IBM has become more and more aggressive with this low performance identification. It used to be a legit way of helping employees to improve. At least In my experience (11 years as a FLM), things went south after COVID."
[03:40]	TR News	"We went from: please identify low performers and work with them, to: I need 6 low performers from your team, 2 per band (7,8,9) and make sure they come from high cost locations, Also from those 6 make sure at least 2 are shown the door (they call it exit target), then few months later, you are handed a list of ppl to RA (like in Nov 2025), that has all the ppl identified and some more."
[03:40]	TR News	"Because this is done yearly (some times every 6 months), the manager ends running out of low performers on high cost locations, and this is when you start seeing, good and productive employees in these (BS) lists."
[03:41]	TR News	"correct they are using as a tool for layoffs not the tool it was originally intended for"
[03:41]	TR News	"why are they claiming 73 percent placed on pips from 2023 to today successfully accomplished their pip and continued to grow at IBM? (Verbatim from low performance indicator email from middle of last year)."
