    this. I'm at a new job (which I'm really REALLY enjoying, btw) and the HR person (who's very nice) told me that we're using XYZ software package to do annual reviews down the line I LOLed Look: keep paying me, or give me a pink slip. Other than that, I'm ignoring !@# & coding.https://twitter.com/ganley/status/1412833109758857217 …

    My own performance review hot take: In my 26-year career I have never once participated in a performance review process that provided any value whatsoever to either employee or employer.

        2/ There are infinite software jobs out there, and my API is very simple: * I will code * ...and code and code and code, and do it well. * you will pay me * I will put up with <= 1 hr meetings/week if this doesn't work for either of us, again, there are infinite jobs out there

        3/ ...and there are infinite software engineers too! This isn't one sided. Hire fast, fire fast, join fast, quit fast. Between remote work and international hiring and low-friction recruiting and online documentation for everything "exit" trumps "voice" by a 900:1 ratio.

        It's one layer of CYA (among many) in the event they fire you. Serves no other purpose, but everybody likes to pretend for some reason.

        "Well we need you to go through this assessment process to make sure you can do the job." Why the fuck did you hire me if you didn't think I could do the job?

        Eventually you realize that being a contractor instead of an employee eliminates all the bullshit and simplifies things down to exactly this, and gives you much more control over your destiny.

        well, I've been a contractor for decades, so I don't think "eventually" is quite the right framing
