Taken in itself anonymous feedback can be more honest and thus more useful. But I think the culture it creates can be quite toxic. If people respect each other, then they can give honest feedback face to face. And if they don't, it won't be long before they're misusing the anonymous feedback mechanisms.
- muzani 6y agoI think what happens is that there's usually 1 in 20 people who can't take honest feedback face to face. In the worst companies or the "top" ones, the ratio is much lower - I'd bet in some major bank, a unicorn, or a FAANG somewhere, there's a lot more egos. And more people who are the type to gaslight you and say your feedback is invalid, or get really defensive and make excuses for everything. But in a large enough companies, where people in different departments don't talk to each other, this can be toxic.
- nitishrddy 6y agoHmm understood! This is really helpful! Thank you!
- nitishrddy 6y agoDo you feel it's a good stepping stone though for people to open up before starting to share non-anonymous feedback?
