If you were on a PIP, your performance was below expectations for your current level. To be promoted your performance needs to be consistently at the next level.
What kind of company was it that contradicted itself so completely?
In all the companies I worked at in there last 20 years, there’s simply no way someone can get promoted while on a PIP. Nor can they get a salary increase, bonus, or shares. It’s a strict rule, and common sense frankly.
It doesn’t matter if they exceed some aspects and fail in others. If they’re on a PIP, they are not meeting the expectations for their role, period.
Not necessarily. My skill set made me the right choice for the new position. It was more of a job title change than anything.
I do suspect that my boss never submitted the pip to HR, though. He never submitted any of the other ‘disciplinary actions’ he performed over the 7 years I worked for him.
How come? That doesn’t make any sense at all.

So you weren’t on PIP and you didn’t get promoted.
Your comment made me laugh out loud. That was well done.
I went from a admin to Sr engineer, so it was a promotion, but I was really doing the job of engineer before the promotion.
