It used to be 360 feedback where you would submit the names of peers. Now managers can go and talk to anyone they wish and it remains anonymous, like you're getting voted off the island, or Big Brother is watching. Even Apple and Wall Street doesn't do it this way.

There is a new senior leadership team and strategic vision about every 6 months.
