Annual performance reviews
I both love and hate these. On the one hand, I find out what they think of me, the end of the year bonus and the raise for the upcoming year. I also dread it, because I'm very hard on myself and constantly feel I could be doing a better job. I think they are going to expose me somehow. I had a pretty good feeling coming into it today, and I wasn't disappointed. 16% bonus, 5% raise, and a hearty congratulations and keep it up. This is in contrast to my review a few years ago (another company). The owner of the company called me in after 18 months and said, "I'm not sure what you do here exactly, but my son thinks you are doing a good job". Here is a 3% increase.
Any good or bad stories concerning this annual ritual?
