Lookback: 1.5 years

Terminated after PIP

Faced burnout, placed on PIP, then terminated after 15 years at the company

What I wish I knew
"To prioritize self-care and address burnout before it's too late"
If I could tell you one thing
"Update resume, consider alternative career paths, and practice reframing termination experience for job interviews"
