You didn't really describe the process. At Google the process of performance evaluation is really simple, if you're not wanting to be promoted: you write a short self-evaluation consisting of up to five projects. For non-promo candidates this is as little as five sentence fragments in a list. Then your manager and a group of other managers from various related and unrelated organizations sit through a meeting called "calibration" where they try to grade you as "meets", "exceeds", or "strongly exceeds expectations", or sometimes "superb" or "needs improvement" at opposite extremes. This happens twice a year, but the self-evaluation is only mandatory once per year. You can also solicit peer reviews if you wish but this is pointless if you don't want to be promoted.
