A comment on Atlassian ditches ‘brilliant jerks’ in performance review overhaul. Parent comment
The problem is that if 9/10 have a bad idea, the 9 decide whether the dissenter is simply opposed or obnoxious.
Or it could be that only 3/10 have a bad idea, and 6/10 are afraid to side with 1/10 out of fear of likewise being considered obnoxious.
Any filter on honesty is a hazard IMO.
