Performance reviews


As participant in a Performance Review cycle, you'll likely be asked to provide feedback about your peers, direct reports and/or your manager(s). Feedback provided about you will culminate in a performance review written by your manager, which may be calibrated with other managers and your HR or People team to ensure a fair and equitable review.

Here are some links to provide you with further information concerning our performance review cycles:

Self-reflections


At Culture Amp, we know that self-reflection is a key step in a performance review so that your manager can better understand your own performance and thought processes. In writing your self-reflection, you can comment on your achievements, learnings, and areas for growth during the review period. This component ensures that your voice is heard!

As a participant in a self-reflection cycle, or a manager reviewing your direct reports' self-reflection, you may have questions pertaining to deadlines, or commenting on a completed self-reflection. We've compiled the below resources in order to help you navigate this process with ease. The Culture Amp Training video provided above touches on Self Reflections as well!

Self-reflection resources

  • How to complete a Self-Reflection as a participant

  • How to track your Self-Reflection

  • Accessing your direct reports' Self-Reflection

  • Commenting on self-reflections

  • How to view your indirect reports' Self-Reflection

Anytime feedback


Typically in the past, the only time to provide substantial feedback to your coworkers and leadership was during the performance review cycle. Feedback is an important opportunity to learn and grow, and at Culture Amp, we know that feedback is valuable all the time! Within the Anytime Feedback module, you are able to send out feedback to colleagues whenever you feel compelled to, as well as request feedback on how you can improve.

Manager-requested feedback


Manager-requested feedback allows managers to request feedback about their direct reports from other individuals, outside of a performance cycle. Since managers can’t be in all places at once, this can give managers insight into an employee’s performance and experience that the manager wouldn’t have on their own.
