Inconsistently meets for not adhering to RTO

My manager said she was forced by HR to downgrade me all the way to inconsistently meets because I had a few weeks where I could only come in 2 days a week due to personal circumstances (which I shared in writing without going into too much detail)

She said it was out of her hands and I did feel bad for her cos she almost started crying and that she said she did fight for me which I do believe is true. She said if I comply with RTO it won’t be a problem to get back to exceeds for my year end review

I’m not mad because she did warn me about RTO but I didn’t have a choice and she understood that. I know it was out of her hands but am a little surprised my review was so severely impacted as I have always been a top performer

Should I be worried about my low rating? I asked if there would be “additional” consequences for my non compliance of RTO and she said she didn’t think so but wasn’t 100% sure

Now I’m really worried

You got an inconsistantly meets and you really expect an Exceeds at year end?
Not going to happen.

You do realize that in September they are starting YE reviews so they can get a number to cut and also budget for bonus to be paid in January for those who survived the cut.
So, you have about 6-8 weeks at most to get to exceeds. IF that actually happens, it just solidly reaffirms how corrupt the system is.

Report back, Iwould love to see if you get it.

I am sorry to hear this happened to you.

I just received my first “Inconsistently Meets” in my 30 odd years in banking. My manager, for maybe one month, could not tell me why I was receiving this rating or provide any specific scenarios to support the rating. Manager is going to get back to me. I am sure they will eventually find something. It is inane.

Heard another coworker got dinged in their review for their average being below 3 days a week.

Yeah, it’s incredibly hard to raise your rating just to meets after a 2 at your mid-year, even if whatever caused it is resolved. Let alone a 4. I wouldn’t surprise if this person ends up with a 2 at year end even if they stay off the RTO report the rest of the year.

Like everyone else said, take PTO. You did have a choice and didn’t listen in the warnings. I WOULD be concerned from now til end of year and would NOT miss three days a week rest of year. None of this avg stuff as you are now in hot water. Mid year ratings are set so no surprises at year end. And it sounds like your boss likes you so that’s good to know.

As BS as this is, my understanding is it’s a 13 week rolling average they look at. At least it is for my LoB. So unless the “few weeks” was super recently, in theory you could’ve gotten that average back up in time for your mid-year. I’d recommend people who can’t come in due to circumstances who are looking to avoid this sort of mess to either come in 5 days per week once they’re able to bring average back up ASAP, or burn half days PTO during the weeks they can’t get in to keep average up. It stinks having to do that, but with them just looking for any reason to ding people with these stack rankings you can’t afford to be under 3.0 come rating time.

The only thing pto is for is getting out of RTO.

Were you out of PTO? Could you not make up the days another week? Rules are pretty clear, so should not have been a surprise.

Just take PTO and avoid all this hassle. RTO rules aren't a mystery. 3 days a week or it could affect your rating. We all know this by now. You're going to be stressed out now when you could have saved yourself the worry and just used PTO. PTO isn't just for vacations.

You won’t jump back up to exceeds this year. It will be meets at best.

You either need to deal with, take PTO or come in an extra day the following week.

Why didn’t you get the accommodation approved through proper channels?
That said I wouldn’t worry about the mid year review. The year end is the one that counts. Just be prepared when your manager is told you can only get a meets.
