I only worked there for about 3.5 years starting in 2006, but from my perspective, dead wood was a bigger problem than the stack rank, and the stack rank was the main force keeping dead wood from being an even bigger problem.

Are there better mechanisms to systematically force managers to make the tough calls to let people go or counsel them out?
