Can't emphasize this point enough. Frog$kins are necessary, but not sufficient, for retention. Especially when the talent has enough resources to decide that it isn't tolerating a manager or customer with the personality of a dented wastebasket.

- greedo 6y agoWe stack rank where I work. My mgmt can't imagine any other way to evaluate employee performance. And the manager I report to isn't very technical, so he can't evaluate actual performance. So he goes by tickets closed, word of mouth from his peers, and how gung ho you are. Since he's not technical, he can't set realistic goals for his staff. So promotions, raises and bonuses are all political.
