A lot of companies do this - without it being known. I see nothing wrong with the practice. Some companies I know of rotate each quarter to cut the bottom people or % that just don't make it. (eg: Q1 might be operations, Q2 finance, Q3 development, etc). It is a forced method of keeping the bar high or moving it higher.

If you try a bit harder, maybe you might be able to think of something that's wrong with this practice.

  An acceptable variant that I've seen implemented well is "the pass". Where a competent leader, decides to "pass" (one or many rotations) because of hiring rates or current team excellence. Just my experience.

    Then it is not forced?
