I actually managed to get myself off a PIP and then quit like a week later when my new offer came through.

(1) IMHO there's no coming back from a PIP. It's going to follow you around and derail future raises and promotions. It's theoretically possible to transfer teams and eventually put it behind you but you're going to at least miss out on some salary increase. Start looking and quit as soon as you find something.

(2) Be the most positive person you can be. You're grateful for the opportunity to improve and gosh don't you love working for [Company]. You're super duper sure that you're capable of performing to level and with your manager's guidance you'll get there and other such bullshit.

(3) Fight back on Slack/Email with your own case. If they say you're not filling out your TPS report right then shoot an e-mail to your manager saying "I filled out my TPS report. Per previous conversations I didn't fill out section Z correctly. Can you double check this one and see if it meets expectations?". Make them generate a paper trail saying you're doing your job.

(4) It sucks but keep telling yourself that this too will pass. At some point either you'll get fired or quit. Like the soldiers say "Accept that you're already dead and things get easier". Accept that your time at this company is coming to an end and it will be easier to operate. For me it became almost like a game of bullshit vs bullshit and there's always at least a little bit of fun in any game.
