Nice troll job. A great F-U-C-K the system posting.

If the performance review system itself is a joke, does Exceeds mean that you are the butt of the joke?

Everyone has a number on their back. It’s only a matter of time.

Your manager wont be aware of your upcoming layoff until 24 hours before. So don't count this as a win yet.

It means your working hard at a job that your going to lose. It's not a good sign for you(as in your IQ).

I'm purposely barely passing on all of my metrics. There's no point in working hard for a company that's going to lay me off. I would consider this common sense.

It’s a bad sign that someone that asked such a stupid question is exceeding their peers.

"Not a good sign. Then they have to give a raise based on that. Good luck with that."

What? Utter BS. That is absolutely NOT how it works,

I received meets repeatedly and exceeds. The year I got laid off (October 2023) I had previously an exceeds. They laid off based on a math calculation (oldest/youngest and worked their way in like an average). Others on my team didn't meet but that didn't matter. It was all an age calculate/average. They did me a favor. Doing just fine.

Coworker got an exceeds, was promoted and then laid off a couple weeks later.

Your boss and a level or two up are operating BAU, but those above them don’t care about performance. They are looking to cut wherever they can.

Fun fact. Multiple people I know got exceeds at mid year last year but were lowered to meets at year end. They dangle that meat in front of you only to take it away a few months later citing a curve system or other bs.

It was likely a clerical error, garbled transmission, etc.

Your revised review will be along shortly.
