Microsoft HR informed managers to issue 30% more Performance Improvement Plans during the months of January and February. HR devised the Performance Improvement Plans to make sure they are nearly impossible to pass. The Performance Improvement Plans issued to employees have a three week duration. With the majority of Microsoft employees expected to fail their Performance Improvement Plans HR expects employees will be released from Microsoft no later than March 15th. HR will identify these employees as fired and will deny all unemployment benefits claims filed with Washington State.
