Negative quota performance reviews to get people to quit
Negative quota performance reviews to get people to quit
Good salary. Chance of working on something interesting. Great place to work (if you are in the Silicon Valley, CA office).
A new culture of treating employees badly by applying a quota for a specific amount of people to give negative reviews, as a way to fire people or make them quit, thereby reducing headcount to pay salaries in the new Silicon Valley tech office. It is the most public secret in the company.
It is the new, sly way to lay people off without causing negative press.
Eventually, management will be subject to false performance reviews as they will be the last to go.
Advice is: when that happens, turn off the lights on your way out.
