Svantaggi
HIPOs are the in thing. The younger you are the more you can be considered one leading solid older employees to feel less valued even if they are solid at their jobs. The review process is done so that every year, a certain percentage of people are required to be M which leads to less of a bonus and merit increase for them. You can think you put in a Strong performance all year long and then the VPs go into a room and come out telling you otherwise. One bad project or visible mistake can lead to a low rating. This leads to a lot of distrust and teamwork, although espoused is difficult when those around you are looking to cut you down so that they won't be Ms.
