Did my first one in 1976 and have done many since (mostly on the evaluating side) and I used to think they were really worthwhile especially if done on a 360 degree basis. Recently though, I think they have gone OTT especially as so many workers are doing their best not to drown in cutbacks - expecting extra pounds of flesh is not really fair especially if any support or pathway or rewards identified are unlikely to materialise.
Support should always be available in one form or another. If pathways or rewards are unlikely to materialise then only a bad manager would offer them in the first place
