Been here 9 years, with the common reorg that they constantly do, I've had 8 different managers. Each one does appraisals differently. No commonality whatsoever. What one defines as meeting expectation, another can view it as exceeding. What's the... — read more

Well, if bonuses are still expected to be paid out on November 22nd, then I would think they will want to do all their displacements before that date.
