A colleague who I know personally was boasting confidentially that he got a raise. I thought there was a freeze on salary increase.

I am praying to be pipd so I can take the PIL. Will health insurance still be active for people who take PIL? Also any pointers on how I can get pipd?

Seriously, DW? You think the past few days have been difficult because someone spilled the beans which affects you and the other MC more than anyone else? Where have you been for the past year with the layoffs, PIP-offs, and high attrition!?
