Nov 23, 2018 at 17:22 comment added cdkMoose @BittermanAndy, that is a great time to discuss how the employee is frustrated by the company's lack of response to previous feedback on the problems. It is not the venue to bring up those items for the first time. If these are new problems, then they don't carry much weight in the full year review. If they are not new, it's fair for management to reply with "Why is this the first time we're hearing about this"
Nov 23, 2018 at 14:32 comment added Old_Lamplighter @BittermanAndy You should post that as a question.
Nov 23, 2018 at 14:23 comment added BittermanAndy When would be a more appropriate time for discussing an employee's satisfaction with the company than on a form, and in a meeting, that asks about that employee's satisfaction with the company? If an employee is already considering leaving due to the situation they are in, when is a better time to talk about it than in a meeting about their future at the company?
Nov 22, 2018 at 20:41 comment added Old_Lamplighter @SimonB As I told my people, the time to bring things is BEFORE there is an issue. Or, more precisely: "If something is brought up before a deadline, it is an issue, after, it's an excuse", The same goes for an employee review. If I was giving a review and it turned into a P&M session, the first thing I'd say would be "Why did you bring this up now"? In other words, the only way it would effect your review would be NEGATIVELY.
