Performance reviews are just employers controlling the narrative when employees are underpaid

Right?
If you underperform, brutal negotiations ensue … prove your value or the deal is off.

Buuut, if you’re overperforming, you get gold stickers and praise, and the possibility of a pay bump through a process controlled by the employer …

instead of you telling the employer that *they* have to prove their value or the deal is off.

Instead over performing then becomes the expectation.

    I’m sorry but this reads like it’s from someone who just got reprimanded for legit reasons but is salty about it.

      lol. Sometimes the bootlicking can seem really strange. You’re completely wrong. If anything it’s the opposite, which is actually what the original statement was about. But hey, questioning the system must mean there’s something wrong with me.
