I definitely could have afforded to quit, but I kept on believing that I could fix it and I just had to explain things to the right people...eventually my manager delivered me a glowing written performance review while telling me in person that he wanted to put me on a PIP, and asked if I wanted to transfer to another team. Total mindfuck. If I hadn't had a solid reputation through the company and with her management chain already I'm sure he would have tried to fire me.
