I have been there. There was another manager I couldn’t stand she was loud and obnoxious but she was the loudest, I am quiet. When it came to her turn to say nominations I backed her completely despite several objections. It came to my turn and she shouted everyone else down who had an issue. Understand your enemies strengths lol

All office jobs are just made up and don’t really mean or achieve anything. 🤣😅

it sounds absolutely dreadful. th pettiness at play across a boardroom table, does it know no bounds? or are th bounds unwritten Machiavellian terms of engagement

Urgh, I’ve been in these meetings & have no idea why these people behave as if it’s their money being spent. I wouldn’t dream of disagreeing with another manager about THEIR staff member

Exactly why I am going to leave the corporate world. Not worth all the hassle and over inflated egos.

That’s never happened to me in 30 years of corporate. We have a calibration exercise, but if there’s a bell curve, it’s usually within each individual team. It shouldn’t be adversarial, team against team. That sounds wild.

See, that’s not how review meetings should be done based on hearsay and opinions. A balance scorecard completed and taken into these review meetings is what’s required, which justifies a persons rating, and their bonus.

and then at the end the managers split all the bonuses that got chipped amongst them and celebrate with a toast to their mate charlie

It’s even more fun when your manager’s nice enough to tell you you’re not getting that bonus because so and so (the colleague you thought liked working with you) said they were disappointed in XYZ 🙃
