I work at a 50-ish person services agency. We used to do reviews at the end of every project. Everyone staffed to the project has the option of publicly or anonymously evaluating anyone else, and we offer the option for clients to give us their feedback on anyone they want. What we found is that nobody gives a shit. People with glowing reviews... still leave the company (even with reviews tied to bonuses). People who are great performers still get shit reviews from their peers based on personality instead of merit. So it's pretty much all just shit that wastes time. We dropped reviews in favor of public praise mechanisms where anyone use an open mic at our weekly staff meetings to praise a co-worker if they feel so inspired (holy fuck it's a lot of sales people patting each other on the back though), and a karma-tracking tool that keeps a tally in Slack. We also send out a very simple questionnaire at the end of a project to our employees, clients, and contractors... it's in a Google Form and they can opt not to leave their name... we just ask, "What sucked about this project?" Love to find a better way to do it... but meh, I don't want to waste any more time on this. We all know who we like to work with, we know bosses give bonuses based on who they like, and anything else is just a BS time-sink designed to make you lie to yourself.
