What percentage of people on PIPs didn't leave the company within a year or two?

My recollection is a very high percentage. Not clear what the alternative is. No action plans to help people improve their performance? Action plans also helped people understand their situation and allowed them to find other jobs while they were still employed at GE. For clarity, I never developed an action plan for someone who was then surprised to receive it.
