Well for us 3 is excellent, 4 is average and 5 is below average.

Nobody speaks clearly but one can smell that most of us are in same boat.

Thinking the same.

Hmmm.. When you think you have really given your best for first two quarters, your boss reviews your performance and tells you that it was not good enough, there were few delays, your preparations for the meetings were never good enough, you took time for design document, you need to much feedback from the upper management, they tell you that its good that you ave plenty of ate hours but we need you to work smartly etc etc etc. But there is hardly mention of the kind of output you have given, without any reliance on anyone. It confuses me. This has been going on for 2 and half years. They give you 4 out of 5, once even change the rating from 3 to 4. Every year the performane is improved the errors from the last year has improved but then the shortcomings in the project just before the review creeps in and spoils all the efforts given before. This has really bothering me now. Should I change job? Feels like there is no hope in this company. Never felt like appreciated but the feedback from the dealing client has been always great. Is the company doing this for the cost cutting in bunuses? Is this the way the boss should review so that employees improve themselves. Also told that you need to take even more responsibility as a senior person. You are the only person in the company who has huge skill sets and performed well in different domains. Will I be ever able to please them or is it that they will ever improve no matter what - let them get so many multi million dollar deals, you will never benefit. Am I wasting my time in this company? Sorry, but I want to blast my brain today.
