TikTok is offering some employees who received low performance scores the choice of submitting to a performance improvement plan (PIP) or agreeing to leave the company with some severance, according to two e-commerce employees who received the offers verbally and three other current staffers who had heard directly from colleagues about the arrangement. The employees said the value of the offers, which have also been made in earlier cycles, varied. One offer included one month in which the staffer would stay on payroll without having to work — often referred to as "garden leave" — along with a separate one-month severance payout arranged as part of a mutual separation agreement. The staffers who spoke to Business Insider asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation; their identities are known to BI. See what the current TikTok staffers told BI of the arrangement: https://lnkd.in/d7C9Dyw9 (Credit: Getty Images) #tiktok #PIP #techcareers

Breaking into the cybersecurity field can be a challenge for some — but 36-year-old Ankit Masrani stumbled into it. The Seattle-based Microsoft employee told Business Insider that while he had plans to become a software engineer, he didn't expect to work in the security space. Now, he develops sovereignty controls for the tech giant's security platform, ensuring sensitive customer information remains within geographic boundaries. After completing a six-month co-op internship at Amazon Web Services (AWS) while he was in school, Masrani converted to a full-time employee, where he focused on securing data and networks until he felt the need for a change. "To be honest, it was very tiring," Masrani said about his six and a half years at AWS. "And I wanted a change in my job to try something different." Read more about Masrani’s career pivot — and the résumé he used to make it happen — on BI: https://lnkd.in/grV8FBjz (Credit: Ankit Masrani) #techjobs #careerpivot #cybersecurity

Business Insider reposted this
New for Business Insider: Many older Americans are at a crossroads: Should they brave the market and hope it bounces back, or rethink their retirement plans? Business Insider spoke this week to nearly a dozen older Americans about how they view their retirement amid a wave of market and economic uncertainty. While some said they're fearful inflation could tick up or their retirement funds may not recover, others are more optimistic and expect the market to rebound. The S&P 500 fell over 10% from recent highs in mid-February and 6% year to date before ticking back up Friday, triggering recession anxiety on Wall Street and hitting many older Americans' retirement investments. President Donald Trump's shifting tariff policies and DOGE-led federal government cuts also mean some older Americans fear higher grocery or medical bills. https://lnkd.in/eivD2YyK
