A lot of companies base your job performance on surveys now 😁 I rent cars and I got a talking to a couple weeks ago because not enough of my customers are shouting me out by name on their surveys

And the majority of people won't either.

Bought a mouse pad at best buy, was asked to fill out the survey for cashier

Submit an IT ticket AT work, asked to fill out a survey for the 3rd party contractor

I barely have enough time for my own job much less others' 😭

WHAT? That’s awful, I’m sorry. These companies shouldn’t be crowdsourcing their management and employee reviews… that’s the managers job :/ especially in retail/service

WTF. I'm bad with names in general, and have never marked down the name of an employee in my life. I could hand write in a perfumed letter of love for the company and my customer service experience and it still wouldn't include the desk rep's actual name

I know, it’s insane. What’s even worse, is that only the fully satisfied customers count. So their survey has to be literally perfect AND they have to shout me out by name
