Am I the only one who feel like getting rid of ratings = giving the partners/directors more room to play favorites?

KPMG got rid of ratings too but just because they don't assign a number doesn't mean that everyone is perceived equal I'm sure. Looking for qualitative points

Yeah that's not high, buddy. You need to find another job if you got a 5

I meant 1. My apologies. Thanks D1

Deloitte got rid of rating systems

*being the top rating. Hate typos

It was already that way before, only difference was the forced distribution that screwed the really good people who weren't favorites as they got pushed down

I just started a new job. I left my previous job because the environment wasn’t healthy and almost all of my colleagues left. The team at my new job is nice but the nature of the work doesn’t align with my interests/is not as unexpected and I’m struggling to stay motivated. I realize I made a poor decision. How bad would it be to quit after only 2-4 weeks? Or, instead of quitting should I ask if I can move internally?
