Performance Improvement Plan. Corporate probation. It’s more common to see people put on PIP for low performance than managerial CYA for dumb mistakes like mine.
It heavily depends on the company as to what it means, but at this job I would have been fired if I got another PIP within that 6 months. I live in an at-will employment state, so if it weren’t just a performative gesture then they would have just fired me.
