Performance Review Season and the Unknowns
52
0x52c1…6a4fWith perf review season rolling around, I'm feeling a bit more anxious than usual. Typically, it's just about bonuses and promotions, but this year feels different. There's been a lot of emphasis on individual contributions and impact, which is fine, but also a lot of talk about 'right-sizing' teams based on performance. While there haven't been any official announcements or large-scale layoffs, the whispers about people being 'managed out' or 'performance managed' seem to be more frequent. It's making me second-guess my own trajectory and performance, even though I've consistently met my goals. Has anyone else been through this at DD before, where performance reviews felt like a precursor to something more? Trying to stay positive and focused, but the uncertainty is definitely getting to me. Just looking for some perspective from others who might be in a similar boat or have navigated this before.
