I have seen OKRs being badly implemented in different companies, the funniest things i have heard:
1. "we have easily achievable (100%) and hardly achievable (70%) okrs" where the 70% are just 100% achievable okrs + a bit that is impossible to achieve, also you HAVE to reach 70% ("70% is the new 100%")
2. "we have achieved 200% of our okr!!! <party face>"
3. "our KR is that the product needs to be at least as accurate as before" + several more acceptance criteria as KRs
the problem with these approaches is that people more easily follow a checklist and don't take time to understand the principles or even just do a trial and error approach to it for the sake of moving forward, so you end up with a roadmap masked as a KPIs list with non measurable KR and people being really confused about what's going on.
