“As a rule of thumb, though, good managers don’t attempt to cause growth by force.

“Performance reviews, by refusing to acknowledge the role of context, allow bad systems to persist, tacitly conveying that the wider system is inevitable and must be accepted. Reviews often correctly diagnose challenges, but put responsibility inappropriately back on an individual, blaming them for their own marginalization or ineffectiveness. They take a person’s failure to be heard and give advice that they could have communicated better.”

Allowing me to provide mandatory filter criteria, then returning results that don’t satisfy the criteria but include a text block with a “Missing: NNN” line isn’t my preferred UX pattern.
