Yes. With your standard 2 and 20 fee structure, you don't pay performance fees on anything below 8% returns. Performance fees are where bonuses come from, so anyone coming up short sees capital and employees disappear overnight.
RenTech has a 40+% performance fee on their Medallion fund because it consistently generates 60% returns YoY.
