Year End Reviews / Appraisals

Middle management bullshit. The only advantage for the common man is that having had decent appraisals year on year they can't suddenly say you're a crap employee without condemning themselves for not noticing that you're struggling.
 


I was happily going through the motions of my daily job, until I got my appraisal, where they produced a 3 page document of my job duties, which I apparently signed 3 years ago and have never looked at since. 90% of it was written in management gobbledegook that I didn’t understand, and consequently hadn’t been working to. Needless to say I got a less than glowing report :lol:

The problem is that most of the “new” duties would require overtime, which I don’t get paid for and hence won’t do. Fuck that.

Absolute load of shite and a waste of time.

Glad I'm a contractor now and don't have to do them.
 
We have quarterly catch ups at my work ffs. Then at the end of the year there's a convoluted process, all aimed to give you a grade out of 5 which is absolutely meaningless, and doesn't effect pay in any way.
