band 4+ individual contributors: add a personalized leadership goal aligned to at least one leadership competency (great, we have to provide leadership without the pay or title)
starting with the 2026 year-end review, all employees will receive a 4-point performance rating, building on the band 6+ approach used in 2025 (no way could this be used as a "rank and yank" method to target workers for termination)
Great things ahead for those not lucky enough to get the VRP!
@fa If only they would get new senior directors for this model instead of keeping the useless ones who are not true leaders.
Maybe a quiet step towards the no middle management model…. We all manage ourselves, it’s being done in other companies and with the minimal contribution most of them make might not be such a bad idea
Teammates always love it when you insert yourself into the Mgr’s position.
Sounds like free leadership labor for useless senior directors.
Have those that are eligible all received notice? What departments and criteria was used?
