They did this at the hospital where I worked. I was always satisfactory but never outstanding. So I started giving them a satisfactory effort. It was a lot easier to be satisfactory than outstanding and the pay remain the same.

Asked my boss what he would have had me start stop or do differently to get a 5, he said he couldn’t think of anything I’d had a great year - I countered if he couldn’t give me feedback on how to improve that means l must have excelled and deserved a 5. I got it.

My boss did this once. I went in for my review and was given a 4, then I brought out all of the "above & beyond" things I did (this included making costumes, changing her flight when a storm changed directions, parking her car for her during bad weatherm etc.) She gave me a 4.5 😟

My last job..everyone got Meets Expectations and never Exceeds bc “there’s always room for improvement.” So what happens? The best employees stop caring.

If I can never get a 5 I won’t be putting in 5 effort!!! Having it as a goal however making it unattainable does not make me want to try to achieve it.

If you put in excellent work and are rewarded with a average pay increase then put in average work.

Oh it’s gets worse than that actually. All my feedback was “great job, keep up the great work” all year long. Not one comment about how I didn’t deliver at a high rate was ever given to me. At review time, I got rated a 2- inconsistently meeting expectations. When I asked why I was told that I needed to be even “more aggressive and push harder”. My next one on one went right back to “nice work!”. I even asked for an example of ONE TIME that I wasn’t aggressive enough or needed to push harder and they couldn’t give a single example (because it didn’t exist). No raise and since I didn’t ‘consistently meet expectations’ I didn’t get bonus that’s 10% of my pay. So Ive updated my resume and now I pick and choose when I feel like giving 100% or not - since that’s what they’re paying me for. 🤷🏻♀️

Yeah, this is a corporate trend. People leave or retire and are never replaced. Their work is distributed to those left but there's never compensation for doing more work. And dont forget, Quality scores must be at or close to 100%. And no, you will never get a 5 or Exceeds rating....even if you walk on water. Its exhausting and there's nothing that cam be done about it. Big bunch of BS!

had the same type of review some years ago. my take was why try to be excellent when you can not be rewarded for your excellence? if you are rated a 3 even though you work like a 5, then start working like a 3.
