| At the Place I Make Money (PIMM) we are reviewed twice per year. There are three grades you can get.
Getting an EE is difficult as your graded vs. others in your group. Plus there is plenty of confirmation bias and favoritism that prevents this. There is even a disparity of salaries between working in NYC vs. a lower paying state. This is only speculation on my part but it wouldn't surprise me if reviews of NYC people are lower than those in the other state to compensate for |
