'I'm fully compliant': Employee fears PIP after requesting hybrid work over father's health issue

A Reddit user requested to return to their company's regular hybrid work model from a five-day office setup due to their father's health issue.

The manager escalated the request to the business unit, claiming the employee 'always comes up with reasons to get out of ODC.'

The manager was reportedly unhappy because the employee sent the request email without informing them beforehand.

The employee received an email from the BU Head and fears being placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) despite no performance or compliance issues.

The employee stated they were not seeking permanent work from home and had completed knowledge transfer for two colleagues.
