Contradictory and Bad End of Year HR Review
A bit blind sided right now. My mid summer was stellar and all my teams said I did well. However, when the workday final review came out it mentioned very contradictory achievements and areas of focus. In the areas of focus, it mentioned how I was lacking in my work product quality, while the achievement section said I did well. It also said how I was great at communication, but then area of focus mentioned how I needed to work on it.
My mid summer was a far cry from this, and I just don’t rly understand why this is the case. I’ve consistently asked for feedback and did my best, and the successes section does note my capabilities. But the area of focus including lacking work product and questionable commitment makes 0 sense.
Our offers are communicated to us officially tomorrow, but this basically spells defeat. I don’t know what next steps are for me, and I feel like all the late nights and extensive work I’ve pulled were rendered pointless. I don’t understand why I was being grinded to the bone after round tables of it was already decided that I wouldn’t be coming back.
Idk what I’m looking for, advice on what to do moving forward, or just relatable anecdotes?
In the same exact situation
I feel for u man, it just doesn’t make sense. Are u planning to re recruit or exit IB? I’m gonna give it my best shot at trying again, but I’m extremely worried
Not sure yet, likely try and recruit. Obviously will be an uphill battle and not feeling very motivated to network and go through the recruiting process again.
Very common to get gaslit by bank while you get fucked. Awful situation but wait and see, hopefully all turns out well
Tbh you probably were a great intern, just a headcount issue and they preferred other candidates.
Headcount issue and those contradictory comments are bank’s legal cover. Bear in mind that ~50% seats are reserved for women.
The truth of the matter is you get discriminated against voraciously for being apart of the group that created this country + western civilization. Need to take our country back and then our industry. Quickest path might just be by letting them take over and watching them blow it all up though, funny enough.
Calm down Tyler. Who exactly is taking over? Women?
Among the 50% seats reserved for women, 90% go to white women. Do you have the balls to push back? Guess all your bravado is reserved for poor PoC.
Enjoy your first time because it’ll happen throughout your career. It’s just the trashy HR box check they have to do.
