Re:Ask HN: Do we really need performance feedback? by perlgeek on Monday July 25, 2016 @05:25AM (#12157445)
You need feedback, yes.

But perhaps not (or not only) on the annual review level, but rather solicit feedback from peers and superiors on a per-project level (or if you work in a Scrum team, per epos or something).

If you get such feedback maybe every two or three months, and then you get a bad annual performance review, you might even use the feedback you collected privately to influence the annual performance review.

Exactly feedback has to be given on continuous basis and based upon the real performances on the projects. Not just on annual basis.
