Managers leaning on AI for EOY Reviews

Recognition isn’t just about a nicely worded review. It’s about feeling genuinely seen, valued, and rewarded. When it turns into a box-checking exercise, it loses all meaning.

Doesn't matter, reviews are useless at this point anyway.

you might be looking at it all wrong.. you're lucky you have a manager that can use AI. I want a manager excited about AI. everything you write should get cleaned up thru an AI, 99% of humans are horrible writers

that said, Dell is marketing itself as AI company, which yes, true, it is, ppl need servers with Nvidia cards, I feel this will be big, buy the stock, but internal AI development is highly controlled and high amount of friction to do anything, they don't have adequate compute and it's approval by a drawn out committee only, they need to bring back the concept of Dell on Dell internally..

"My manager took a lot of wording from my self assessment. "

This has always been the way for me with my current manager. With the addition of "keep doing what you are doing"

Great. Inspiring

Let me get this straight: I used AI to write my self-assessment, my manager used AI to write my review, and now AI is handling my emails and parts of my job. At this point, I might as well send Optimus to badge in for me.

Must be manager dependent. Mine was super in depth and valuable. He's one of the good ones.. unfortunately he feels he's getting pushed out.

“We can’t offer a raise this year, but we can offer you five days a week in the office.” Cool, just go ahead and squeeze my nuts while you’re at it.

End-of-year reviews have become just another way to squeeze employees.

No noticeable AI in mine. My manager took a lot of wording from my self assessment.

This is 100% true. Was told in mine that AI was used to take all the peer feedback received about me and turned it into AI created bullet points
