There's a fake ass "goals" system. I was supposed to save my company $500k off of our massive cloud budget. I ended up cutting $1,000,000 by optimizing services and deleting old junk, also wrote some automation that saved us ~$250k. Still ended up receiving a "meets expectations". We aren't supposed to know but managers are told that nobody is allowed an "exceeds expectations" review otherwise it would disrupt the bonus / incentive situation which is tilting toward rock-bottom.
