>> Stack ranking has received continuous criticism since General Electric popularized it in the 1980s.
I didn't know this existed until now. The problem with this (among others) is that I can never personally know where I stand. If I'm doing well, but being excelled by others, I still get penalized. There's no guarantee, it's almost random.
Also, I now have a new question to ask in interviews, and if it does exist in a hiring company, I can negotiate by declining bonus pay performance reviews and in lieu of ask for higher wages (not that any company would go for this).
Ah the 1980’s when Neutron Jack Welch (he kills the people but leaves the buildings intact) was seen as a visionary. He was ahead of the curve in massive layoffs while doing tons of mergers and acquisitions that years later seem to have been questionable at best. Nice to see this MBA hookum continue to survive like some radioactive zombie cockroach
