there is 100% nepotism in hiring and putting people in PIP. I have seen it in companies of different sizes . its not right but it is fully  there . Diversity could be  my h broader than the way we think about it. My take is even if we can’t change the whole world we should definitely stand up for anything that we see and face . We might not win every battle but we can’t give up. the material how to navigate through PIP done by Rahul is amazing. Take a look. and if you need any specific help  please DM me .

Win your anxiety - when working remotely you can’t afford to be always anxious thinking u will lose ur job. it kills your productivity that way. Another thing is put more emphasis on effective communication. .    

One strategy could be - 
1. When listing down every smaller  activity on a task level that will be adding up in that whole story. 
2. u can have a template 
3. just add hours for every task.  
4. have some buffer 
5. convert that hours to story points 
if you follow the above steps its hard to over commit . hope it helps
