At my job we have end of year reviews that usually determine your pay and promotions for the next year. My ratings were in for my employee''s. My boss called me into his office yesterday and he explained to me that he received an email from his boss stating that everyone''s rating had to go down. Here''s where my moral issue lies. So if you do what you''re expected and go above and beyond, you get a four, if you don''t, you get whatever the next lower number is. So basically his boss wants to bump us down because he was told that 25% of his employee''s had to be X number. So my employee''s included myself worked so hard this year, for what? How do I explain to my employee that he/she performed below what he/she really did? I guess what is really aggravating is that my boss fought it, but he was basically told, "it doesn''t matter what you think, I''ll change it regardless." I have never had so much respect for my boss until I saw him cry. It’s such a let down. Does corporate America have any kind of decency anymore? What have we become?
At the end of the day, should my employee''s including myself stop working so hard for the values that we believe in? Do we just let the company down because our work is not worth what it used to be? So disappointing…
Thanks for letting me vent...
