• analyzing the defendant’s decision to place the plaintiff on a PIP as a standalone Title VII claim
• “[A]bsent evidence of pretext and discriminatory motive, [a] plaintiff’s own opinion of the harshness of the penalty is irrelevant.”
• “Because there is no evidence of ‘glaring errors’ that would be ‘probative of pretext,’ any evidence that plaintiff was performing better than Ford reported does not show that plaintiff’s placement on the PIP was pretextual.” (internal citation omitted
