Pros
You’ll learn how to stay motivated without rewards. Great training ground for managing disappointment and lowering expectations.
Kontras
Performance, margins, client renewals — none of these reliably matter when it comes to appraisals or bonuses. Company success is celebrated loudly, but individual contributors are quietly told the business isn’t doing well enough for them. Growth conversations are recycled every year with the same promise: “next cycle.” Zero Transparency, criteria are flexible, and accountability is optional.
