360 reviews underpin the hit CBS show Survivor. I'm sure some eager type can take that premise and run with it to form a critique of corporate America.

Also note that MBAs and other business types have learnt to game the system by providing 5 star all around. Why? Your average tenure at a company is low (2-3 years). You need your peers for your next job. Why denigrate each other.

In my company moving up the ranks is pretty difficult in tech whereas other departments are very generous with titles (and the salaries that come with them).

It seems engineers are not smart enough to game the system and actually rank each other honestly. Whereas the business and law guys know better.
