I was blindsided 3 days ago with the option to go on a pip or find a new role at my company because I am not “leveling up” in the way my boss wants me to. I never felt liked or trusted by my boss and felt like everything I did or said was scrutinized, which became apparent after they told me one of the reasons I am not good enough had to do with a spelling error I made on a doc I sent to them to review, and I questioned them once in a team meeting.

I was blindsided 3 days ago with the option to go on a pip or find a new role at my company because I am not “leveling up” in the way my boss wants me to.

Since taking over this team of 3, my boss has already fired my counterpart for not living up to expectations and now is firing me for the same. I can’t stop feeling like a total failure. It’s the first thing I think of every morning and consumes my thoughts all day. I know this is just a job and I will find another, but it still sucks. Oh and I’m 4 months pregnant, which they know. I am not saying that’s the reason I’m getting basically fired, I’m saying it because I’m scared no one else will hire me. I’m not looking for justification, just encouragement that I will get past this eventually 🥲
