It is absolutely a performance review. Today we are announcing new utilization targets of 115%.

likefunny

I don't get people who say this is part of routine performance review - they have always been really slow with performance related decisions and the FY is literally closing today

Isn’t it expected? It’s happening everywhere and I don’t think anyone is immune to it.
