if i'm wrong, but i think bb operates on a system where the raises and certs are channeled to what they consider the top 15 percent performers. poor or average performers get nothing, they're hoping they'll leave. even ``good'' performers get stiffed, they dont really care if they leave. an interesting survival of the fittest setup, a social experiment. many other companies would like to try the same. but the big flaw at bb is, the evaluation system and judgment criteria are outrageously disfunctional, almost completely broke. so that's where the system breaks down. |

Sad thing is, you go from the viewing stand (the top 15%) to Siberia through no fault of your own because of a TL change, an illness that keeps you out, a maternity leave, etc.
And yes, the review system is completely broken. It has become a two edged sword which certainly can skewer the tageted reviewee, but can also create a paper trail that has the potential to the leave the company quite liable.
