I hate this place - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Interaction Design Foundation: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Dear C. You’ve now posted 5 consecutive 1-star reviews in intervals of a few days. You’ve called management “sociopathic” and written statements such as “DON'T. BE. TRASH”. In the spirit of openness and factuality, we do want to gently note something about your case: we spent many, many months investing in attempting to get your performance to an acceptable level. A normal Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) takes a maximum of a month in most companies before they exit a person if the person cannot reach an acceptable level of performance. In your case, we went above and beyond our normal protocol for underperformers and spent roughly 4 months. We did it to keep you a part of our team, and it was with heavy hearts that we eventually needed to face facts, and part ways. In other words, two Team Leads as well as the co-CEO invested their time and company budgets for 4 months to try to get you to reach an acceptable level of performance. We believe we went above and beyond. With that said, we ask that you be respectful and professional in your communication. A factual and objective approach is best in these situations. Instead of using bitter or vague language, one could provide specific and concrete examples of what went wrong and how we could do better. This way, we can have a more productive and meaningful conversation. We understand that emotions can run high when you are dissatisfied. We understand that when a job does not work out, it can hurt. We wish you the very best.
