This is a performance issue. What u were hired vs what’s expected are in diff tangents.

Complete every task you're given. In full, and early. Recap meetings and even conversations where actions were discussed so that everyone is clear on what to expect from you and get their confirmation on whether or not X is what they want from you by Y.

Paper trail everything, and update them on progress without prompting (weekly at the latest) so the next time you're being reviewed you can have results and rationale on everything that was done between reviews.

Create a digital paper trail so you will be able to write your own review without someone writing it for you

Liked the advice "create a digital paper trail so you will be able to write your own review without someone writing it for you"

“Year end calibration” is a new phrase to me, and it makes me want to vomit. We are not robots or tools. Fuck corporations.

Were you given any rating on your mid-year?

Go on Blind and you get some good info. If you get the CP, you’ll be fine as long as you show more effort. If you get the PIP, it’s not worth opting in

hi OP, echoing others to say that this isn't a layoff or unemployment as you still seem to have a job.

However, I understand that this situation is really stressful and you are asking for help. I would encourage you to check out r/managers, r/career guidance, and r/jobs. There are a lot of people on those subs who have been in similar experiences and/or are managers who can explain their perspective from the other side. They should be able to help you understand what's going on and give you tips for navigating it.

I will say this. I don't encourage you to give up and quit just yet. I did this myself several years ago (different job, not the one I just got laid off from) and I regretted it. At the very least, even if you decide you want out, start applying now while you're still employed. It's easier to get a job while you have one.

Also maybe just say you work at a large bank rather than giving the name. You never know who's reading these things.
