“Truth can only be found in one place: the code.”
― Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship
― Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship
“In short, performance ratings are indicative only of how a person is performing in their given role at the time they are being evaluated. Ratings, although an important way to measure performance during a specific period, are not predictive of future performance and should not be used to gauge readiness for a future role or qualify an internal candidate for a different team. (They can, however, be used to evaluate whether an employee is properly or improperly slotted on their current team; therefore, they can provide an opportunity to evaluate how to better support an internal candidate moving forward.)”
