If you ever get put on a PIP for a reason that's obviously to get rid of you as fast as possible, have a quiet word with someone in power and float the idea of a settlement agreement.

You might even get a free laptop out of it..

In the US it's true companies get indemnity for this, but they also usually have better lawyers than you do, so most will play hardball and you lose and then when a company does a background search on you and see litigiousness... it's better to take your losses and move on.
