Vanity Fair:
Eichenwald’s conversations reveal that a management system known
as “stack ranking” — a program that forces every unit to declare
a certain percentage of employees as top performers, good
performers, average, and poor — effectively crippled Microsoft’s
ability to innovate. “Every current and former Microsoft employee
I interviewed — every one — cited stack ranking as the most
destructive process inside of Microsoft, something that drove out
untold numbers of employees,” Eichenwald writes. “If you were on a
team of 10 people, you walked in the first day knowing that, no
matter how good everyone was, 2 people were going to get a great
review, 7 were going to get mediocre reviews, and 1 was going to
get a terrible review,” says a former software developer. “It
leads to employees focusing on competing with each other rather
than competing with other companies.”
