Jan 27, 2019 at 22:24 comment added Fattie @ChrisF - I see - makes sense! Good luck!
Jan 27, 2019 at 18:16 comment added Chris F @Fattie He's had 3 "needs improvement" reviews now (so a year and a half of not improving sufficiently despite improving). In May, if he still hasn't improved, I will be able to fire him. Until then, I have to try everything and document to show I tried. His previous manager told me about all of these problems and they persist.

Jan 27, 2019 at 17:35 comment added Fattie I am always amazed when team leads put up with problems like this. You know how Stalin said "If we shoot the man in the head, there is no problem with the man." Similarly ....... "Fire Bob".
Jan 27, 2019 at 17:13 comment added Anthony Do you and the rest of the team members and Bob come from different cultures? Some cultures are more assertive and others more deferential

Jan 27, 2019 at 4:30 comment added Chris F He is older than the rest of the team, but has less experience than some (he was out of work for several years). He is not an especially high performer because he is in a collaborative role where he has to communicate with other departments and really struggles with that. His technical skills are good, otherwise he would have been fired under his previous manager. I haven't had a review with him yet, but he has consistently "needs improvement" reviews.
Jan 27, 2019 at 3:51 comment added user58697 How old is Bob? How much experience does he have (cf the rest of the team)? How does he perform in general?
