> on a PiP because your token burn is low

Does this happen? I’ve never been at a company that measures employee performance by token burn targets. I suspect most companies don’t do that, but I could be wrong obviously.

I know people that were laid off because they were low on the “token leaderboard” so yes it happens.

I doubt it, but I've seen dumber stuff like laying off people because they think AI will replace them

I have friends who work at both large and small companies, as well as startups, and more often than not this is the case. Surprisingly, those who work at a YC startup face the PIP quite regularly for not enough token usage.
