Which, unfortunately, is only so much related performance. Feedback circles and cabals are a thing. Pkus some people are better at operating those cycles than others.

> Managers at Amazon are expected to put 5 to 10% on a PIP or manage them out every review cycle.
A slight correction: An organizational unit larger than a 2 pizza team -- think 50 engineers, is expected to cut 5-10%. A team within that unit may lose 0 engineers, which is how high performing teams that meet all their goals stay intact.

Fair. But every manager must be prepared to put one of their people forward, even if they ultimately don't have to in the session. The pressure is still there.

Fair: 1/25th of a pizza is gonna leave a lot of people hungry!
No matter if your team is amazing or not, 5% getting cut.
