I love HR bs like this. Having to make up vacuous accolades to hand out to people doing a fantastic job for literally no reason. Presumably also making these highly productive employees jump through arbitrary hoops to validate their own existence.

You may already know this, but you can google "performance review phrases."

As a manager, I've found it invaluable over the years :-)

Oooh - I like this, and agree with the other commenter that this is some nice HR spin
