Depending on where you live 3-6 month probation periods can be completely standard. If you get the job, you are accepted there. The probation period is just a window in which you and the company can separate with less friction. In most places it's a formality that you shouldn't worry about unless you're extremely underperforming or doing something egregious at work.

Or your manager arbitrarily decides they don't like you (particularly in startup-like environments with limited process). It shouldn't happen, but it does.

Some companies, that struggle to get candidates, seem to use the probation period as a way of being able to hire people without properly testing skills first.
