Well my team have to write their mid year & end of year review for me, and I have to do the same for my boss. In our current system a certain percentage have to be marked down and within my grade we have meetings to decide who's going to get marked down within our teams.
My boss has to do the same for my grades in his department. It wastes a load of our time, on something that isn't used in promotion or job exercises, demoralizes anyone who got marked down who didn't deserve it, and is the most loathed reporting system I've ever known.
Thankfully its the last year for this one, but we don't know whats coming in to replace it.
We would all happily not have one, if you're not up to scratch then have a poor performance system.
