For experienced devs, were you put on PIP early in your career? How did you bounce back from it to stay in the industry? (programming.dev)

I'm a new grad who started at one of the Big Tech companies this past year. Been recently notified that I'm in danger of being placed under PIP due to underperformance, which I thought was fair due to extenuating familial circumstances. I'm personally feeling despair in being capable or being able to stay in the tech industry considering my lack of ability or general aptitude.

Don't sweat looking around in more traditional companies. There are a LOT of big tech and big 4 refugees that chose family over work.
