> Funny enough the move away from stack ranking was very unpopular at Microsoft I would imagine that nearly every change in performance review structure at nearly every company is unpopular: People who were let go (or who left voluntarily of low bonuses/raises/refreshes) aren't there to complain! Everyone who is left, who knew how to game the system (or was so good they didn't need to) now has to optimize to a completely new metric.
