A little imposter syndrome keeps you hungry.
A lot of imposter syndrome is paralyzing.
I had a very similar experience to you during my first performance review at Microsoft. Thought I was just scraping by, ended up getting a promotion.

- illumen 11y agoA very interesting humble brag thread. I'm not sure it's imposter syndrome if you think you're doing well when presented with evidence and then believe it. Not by definition anyway. The performance reviews remind me of this little joke (actually a common real experience) -- "I got rated Above Average!" 'What was the average rating?' "Let me check... Oh. It's Exceptional".
