They want you to be firm and say fire the employee. I was too nice apparently.

I would have a private one on one conversation with the employee. We would discuss expectations of their position documenting the conversation and asking for a commitment for the job expectations. Following the conversation and commitment expectations I would follow-up with weekly coaching and or training. The weekly follow-ups would be documented. Doing this would build a strong team member or could provide documentation for HR to release the team member from employment if difficulties don't change.
