Initially, it was layoffs, and now we’re facing appraisals. Companies surprised us with sudden job cuts, leaving many of us uncertain about our futures. Just when we hoped for a reprieve, it’s appraisal season.
It’s disheartening to witness how organizations are using these layoffs as a reason to further restrict budgets. They expect us to manage heightened workloads and stress while cutting back on appraisals. It feels as if they believe they control our destinies and can act without regard for our well-being.

I completely understand your frustration. It’s disheartening to see companies prioritize cost-cutting measures over their employees’ well-being. Layoffs already create so much uncertainty and anxiety, and then to compound that with appraisals that feel unjust or inadequate only adds to the stress. Employees are expected to perform at their best despite the increased workloads and emotional toll. It’s essential for leadership to recognize this and show appreciation for the hard work and dedication of their teams, especially in challenging times. Open dialogue about these issues could be crucial in helping to rebuild trust and morale within the company. Let’s hope for a more supportive approach moving forward!
