Amazon has recently announced the launch of their “Pivot” program that’s designed to retain underperforming employees with additional coaching and training, Business Insider reports.
If an employee was put into Amazon’s performance improvement program or PIP, it used to mean termination was likely. Now, with the new measure in place, employees can take advantage of coaching with a ‘Career Ambassador’ who can help bring their performance up to par. Employees also have the choice to quit with severance pay, or ask for an appeal regarding their placement in the PIP.
