Fired @ 7months pregnant

r/

Just fired from my sales position this morning. I’m 7 months pregnant, so having a minor panic attack.

Every sales rep was placed on a pip because the company was/is performing poorly. They said it was because I didn’t meet the expectations, however I was the only sales rep to hit the goal of closing business deals at x amount (I surpassed that goal by 2x). I can prove that no one was hitting all goals. I’m well aware that pips are meant to push folks out of an org, but this was supposed to last for 8weeks, it has only been 4. And they never had KPIs implemented before this(probably why they’re failing).

To sum it all up, I feel like I was wrongfully terminated as someone who brought in sales-sales worth more than my base salary- and who is so close to mat leave.

I understand I need to take emotion out of this (easier said than done given the amount of sheer hormones running through my body) but I’d like to understand if I have a chance at a case.

    Possibly. You’ll need to speak to an employment lawyer to see if it’s worth pursuing.
