Fired for cause for performance and was told that I would be ineligible for rehire. Has anyone been rehired after told that they won’t be able to come back? My old team wants me back cause I was a high performer in that business, prior team to the one I was fired by.

Bump
are both teams IB? need more details
Yes both are ib, different coverage. So i switched over to the recent team because it was a new team but the business flopped so they made a bs performance case to fire without giving severance. However, my previous team where i was 2 years prior is open to bringing me back after speaking to the md who knows the quality of my work pretty well.
i've seen people marked not for rehire brought back within 1-2 years. MD had a ton of clout.
...would say this is applicable to your case bc the team that canned you was low rev or non-rev. if revenue generators want you back - there is a path.
Assuming the former team is aware of your recent performance related dismissal and they still want you, then I see no legal / HR issues.
Its an hr policy to not rehire if dismissal is due ti performance. Was highlighted in the termination letter.
If I understood correctly, you were let go from the current team due to performance but left at will from the previous team?
what? you don't get canned from a team, you get canned from an organization. a 'not eligible for rehire' is supposed to be applicable across the board, even if you tried to join the events and marketing team. Doesn't mean it'll be enforced, but yeah - not a team specific clause.
Assuming these teams are at two different banks
Yeah, thats the issue. High performer on that team but screwed on the lather team. The md wants to make a case to HR and has two years of reviews to show. But I am not sure how intact these HR policies are.
I have seen this clause in other companies, if terminated due to performance or for cause - no re-hiring. This can be tricky if there aren't many companies where you live or in that industry. A person has a right to earn a living, but a company as a private business can't be forced to re-hire someone they terminated.
