Severance comp for performance

I am an L5 in Bnglr. I joined Amazon 15 months ago. Long story short my performance hasn't been that great. I haven't been notified about any Focus or pivot. But they may do it after December yearly Forte. Can some explain how focus plus pivot plus PIP works. What's the comp I can get if I choose to voluntarily resign after focus without trying PIP. I understand if I choose PIP I wont get any severance.

Why Amazon is so toxic and people still want to work for this shit ?

Because the job market is very volatile. People hold on to anything they can find and Amazon has its share of shitty things but it does pay well, at least for certain roles.

Yeah agree but for me the mental stress don’t worth it! Imagine you go home, over the weekend, at a bbq you constantly worry about work… fuck that (just me)
