I was put on a PIP two months after complaining about my manager's biased, bullying, and disrespectful behavior to HR. During the meeting, HR was supportive, heard me out, and encouraged me to have courage. However, I noticed that after a few weeks, HR also started ignoring me when I requested follow-up meetings.
My manager, after two months, finally asked for a meeting where she gave me 0 marks on all my P0 metrics. Some P0 metrics I couldn't achieve due to external factors, which she completely disregarded. This wasn't just my situation; many of my colleagues couldn't meet the P0 metrics due to external recession and market factors. Shortly after sending me an email with the 0 marks, she placed me on a PIP, citing escalations from stakeholders regarding my poor performance, bad experiences, and missed meetings. When I asked for examples, incidents, and proof, she didn't provide any.
I contested the PIP, presenting all my performance data and evidence. Additionally, I raised her behavioral issues in a separate email to the CHRO, but received no response or counter-proof from my manager regarding her claims. She continued to ignore me, speak negatively about me to HR and the team, and refused to share evidence supporting her accusations. The PIP contest meeting was unproductive, filled with insults, questions about my competency, and blame-shifting. When I requested to see the proof against me, they were unable to provide any.
Feeling my trust and interest in the job and the company wane, and with severe impacts on my mental and physical health, I decided to resign. Now, the HRBP is suggesting that I could go on Garden Leave instead of serving the notice period (two months). As I have no job offers and my health is not great, I'm unsure if Garden Leave would be beneficial or potentially have negative consequences on my future job prospects.
Please advise on the implications of Garden Leave in my situation.

Hi,
Your current employer wants to keep you away from the office premises during the notice period for fear of data security or they might have some apprehension that you will spoil the work environment during the notice period. At times, due to a lack of work, this practice is followed. As long as they pay the notice period salary and provide a proper relieving, there is nothing to worry about. However, please note that during the notice period, you will not join with any other company.
