I may potentially be put on a PIP at work under false pretense.

Good for you OP. Seems your time is done when a PIP comes around as it always starts that way.

Flex your options and just save for the next 3 months as a PIP is what? 30 days for improvement?

When you have to walk into your bosses office to ask him what the protocol is for putting in your 2 weeks just embrace the on his face when you have an entire 2 weeks to do nothing while you have just signed for a new job.

He hasn't put me under a PIP YET but he threatened as a "warning" before he puts me on one. Then it's extremely thin ice.

I think a PIP means different things in different companies but I think it's bullshyt on his part to do that when I just came in for a senior position which I was vetted for before even accepting the offer.

But even if I avoid it, who knows whether or not he will try it again a few weeks or a few months later? I have to get away from him. It's bad for my career.

And this is an at will state. I may just give him a day or two notice given all of this.

Yeah especially when you were trying to get that Senior Position. So it's obvious he is trying to block you for some reason or for someone else.

Well hey you know he is a slimy ass dude so you just have to keep it business with him 100 percent. Wow...right when you are trying to get to the next level he wants to talk PIP.

Just smile when you put in your 2 weeks brother ;)

I'm already Senior. That's the thing. They hired me as such but he hasn't coached me or set expectations accordingly.

Still leaving lol I can get paid more and deal with less elsewhere

Ah I didn't see that and that means they or HE is trying to set you up for failure and get you fired. I had a cac do something similar to me when I moved for a job promotion and he ended up being my boss.

He would go to my direct reports. He never set any expectations.

Then got me fired. I sued for that wrongful termination and actually won.

Seeing his funky ass face in court for that verdict was priceless.
