Mid-Year Conversation

Anyone else not having the conversation with their manager today even though July 28th is the deadline? What the heck is going on with this place?

I do not understand why folks are talking about reviews and that too midyear reviews.

If one is in trouble, it gets documented and sets one to be ready for a sendoff.
If one is in good books and slated for a promotion, it gets firmed up.
The rest - 99% - it is waste of everyone's time.

No amount of debating will get the rating changed. And any challenges just paints one as a trouble maker. This is last 10 years of performance review process.

No one really cares about it

Re-read your obscene rant please. And then, tell us again how you are not a mor-on? If you need to resort to name calling and obscenity, you are not fit to post. Don’t blame us. Blame your parents for poor upbringing and inferior genetics.

@bq actually you are the mo--n who has been here how long and just as clueless. Explains why everyone is miserable. They work with re--rds like yourself. “Oh the deadline is this day. Let me start working on it that day”. D-mb f-k

@bn
Exactly…. And We were also told that anyone failing to meet or achieve corporate deadlines - including the inane and silly training- is not meeting corporate goals and objectives and subject to disciplinary action. Rules for thee but not for management me it seems.
And bd+1k191kym3- you are quite the mo--n. 7/28 is basically over now. Only 99 minutes to go

For years I have also been told “ I never have concerns with you. When I ask you to do something, I know it will get done, correctly.”. But the mgr would always document their “review” and I would sign off on it . This year , and I checked an hour ago ( after 6:00 on the 28th) . The status of my mid year is still sitting at “mgr review” needed status . It said this milestone was due today . I have no problem with that , but where outside of a survey can we rate our managers ???

I have not heard anything from my manager and the manager evaluation has not been released to me. Very disrespectful!

I guess the culture is really about letting our employees down. This is really a third rate organization.

From what I hear, there is a department in PGH where the manager went on a mutli-week vacation, and 1-on-1 mid-term reviews are now delayed indefinitely.

Know what I was told? I quote - ‘yeah, you’re fine. No need to talk unless there’s a problem’
This means that all these reviews really are just window dressing and targeted at people with dart boards on their backs.
This is a terrible two faced company.
