What %age of Amazon employees "pass" the PiP? is there even hope of succeeding, or PiP just an extra-advanced termination notice?

Who knows? The only way I would gamble on succeeding or getting half my compensation would be to bye time if I were here on status and the minute I lose my job the clock started ticking and I would have to leave the country.

I guess if I were close to my next vesting date I would have tried to hang on.

If the vesting date falls within that period or if you have only been there for 2.5 years or less then hang on. At 3 years you get 2.75 months pay compared to the full 3 months pay.

If this is your first year take the pip plus the appeal for the maximum payout.

But then you lose 1/2 the severance amount

If it’s anything like any other company, I’d wager the number was in the single digit percentage wise, and low singles at that.
