Hey there! It’s Sloan, your friendly neighborhood DEV Moderator 🦥
Time for another installment of Sloan’s Inbox, a fresh online advice column and discussion hosted by yours truly. Every week (or so), I dive into the questions, comments, and thoughts of my fellow sloths.
That’s what Sloan’s Inbox is all about: sharing advice and observations with those who are seeking insight on topics including career development, navigating office politics, staying up-to-date with industry trends, improving technical skills, and more.
Today I received a query from a fellow DEV member seeking guidance on how to improve Jon performance and maintain a positive attitude while working through a challenging situation.
Here’s today’s question:
Can anyone share their experience with being put on a performance improvement plan? I’m feeling pretty down after being placed on one and worry that it’s inevitable that I will be fired. Is there any hope for improvement and overcoming this situation?
So, don’t be shy! Share your thoughts in the comments below and let’s chat.
