It's a tool to get more ROI per employee. Employees compete for promotion or bonus with their peers to appear better performer within given framework. And produce extra value for the shareholders. And this framework turns into a game which experienced people can play to get more benefits.

Looks like a sick trick, doesn't it? :) I wouldn't want to work for a company that sees that this way.
