I have worked for this company for 2 1/2 years. In March 2014, I was put on PIP for a couple of mistakes I made. It was supposed to be a 3 month PIP, but it was put on hold and nobody ever talked about it again until last month. They said I could choose being demoted or being put on probation again, this time for a period of a month. The company has a policy on PIP, but nothing was ever followed(Documentaion, plan for improvement, weekly meetings for follow-up/feedback...). Meanwhile, I got pregnant and when I told management, I was asked to produce a doctor's note confirming my pregnancy (Is that even legal?). After the 1 month probation period ended, I was let go, even though there was no plan for improvement, no feedback, no weekly meetings... I should also mention that I had done my job, and also put in a lot of overtime, authorized by management, so I am not sure why I was put on PIP for a second time. Shouldn't there be a reason for that? Do I have a case and should I speak to a lawyer?
