EY GDS appraisal system is the worst in the world

Let's take mine as example

Last year I got progression with exceptional contribution rating

This year my performance was as even better than last year with several partner level appreciation and value adds done.

But this time I got valued contribution ( no promotion or progression)

Reason - last year I got progression and exceptional. Hence they can't give anything this year.

I was like wtf dude. Are you serious?

This was my first cycle in EY GDS and irrespective of my good performance I was getting response like in first year we don't give rating more than VC. I was like, seriously? But I fought for it and got Higher contribution rating.

Can you please explain a bit more like how did you get it ?

Lesson to be learnt: Quit EY GDS once you hit promotion/progressions

Depends on the Senior Manager and your counsellor. I have been awarded exceptional contribution for the past two years..

That being said I am a senior working at a staff salary.

I got high contribution this year and last year, however this year I got promotion but my vpb % was almost the same both the year, I was like wtf dude what's the value of a promotion than if you gotta give me the same bonus?

Reading this post now I am sure next year since I already got promoted this year, I will get valued for sure.

Screw your manager and throw a resignation on his/her face. Look for organisations who appreciate your contributions and help you grow.
