Hi All,
I need help. I have been asked by my company to resign verbally due to non-performance. The rating given was 50% met and 50% target not met 3 months ago. Since then, no discussion has taken place regarding my performance. Suddenly, HR and management are asking me to leave in 2 or 3 days due to non-performance and the rating given in the first appraisal.
Please suggest?

Seek some time to show improvement. Analyse why target achievement had shortfalls? In mean time look around.

Understanding Your Options After a Poor Performance Review
If the company does not want you, there is little you can do. It's better to find another job. The company gave you a 50% rating, which should have motivated you to perform better and meet the targets. From your post, it seems that the performance has not changed. Naturally, the company will not be willing to pay the salaries of someone who can't deliver.
You can, of course, request the management for another chance. If they don’t agree, then you have no option but to leave or face termination.

Hi Mr. Samaysingh,
Sticking to the words in your post "Asked By My Company To Resign Verbally," I would say that no good company will discuss performance verbally. The company was kind enough to give you a 3-month period to improve based on verbal feedback. Therefore, you are now responsible for evaluating your own performance level.
Nevertheless, it is always better to strive for improvement and seek out more opportunities to learn and grow.
Wishing you all the best.

Realistic and Practical Suggestions
With due apologies, I suggest providing suggestions that are realistic and practical. While what you mention may be technically right, do you think Samaysingh is in any position to implement what you suggested? Here he is fighting for his survival, and you are suggesting he quote rules to the company when he is in no position to even ask for an extension to show performance. Even if the company gives him some more time to prove himself, it will be as a gesture and not as his right or any rule.
@ Samaysingh-- As other members suggested, please ask for more time, but before that, also figure out why you haven't been able to perform. Only then can you try to correct yourself and show improvement. Otherwise, you won't be able to prove yourself even if given a year. In parallel, look for new jobs. All the best.

Don’t resign. Make them fire you. Keep emails and all documents. Clients, any appreciations and the last hr mails if any. Go to labor court.

Believe in yourself and the company. The company has hired you with the expectation of reasonable performance. As per the appraisal, there are some shortfalls projected by the management.
Clarifying Job Expectations
If your job profile or KPI was defined, you must discuss with your HOD to understand the shortfalls. Get clarity on the expectations. If you feel the target is not achievable, identify the knowledge or training required to perform better. Your intent to continue is the intent of your HOD, and he will definitely accommodate you to perform better. In turn, that is his performance too. Your hard work and the right approach will give you an edge. Good luck.
