Ask better questions. “The better the question. The better the answer. The better the world works.”
You’re not asking the right questions. Don’t take the responses you are being given. Ask for additional feedback, ask direct questions, site specifics (what can I do better? How can I improve? What can I do to enhance my learning? Etc) It’s also best to set up periodic touch points on larger projects.
Most are too scared to provide true constructive feedback. It’s really hard to do it in a manner that doesn’t piss someone off. Most of us in “management” roles aren’t great at that, we’ve moved up because we’re good at the work and still learning how to manage people.
Absolutely. I remember being a senior and getting destroyed in my upward feedback from the associates because of how I approached feedback for them. Guess who refused to give anyone feedback for the next 6 months until my coach noticed and worked with me on it?
It’s not easy and most people avoid the hard things so it’s easier to give general “good job” feedback that is useless than feedback that will actually help someone.

I've learned you just have to take initiative. Set up a call and discuss. Don't let them get away with just the write up.
