What do you think of Yahoo's HR policy?
Yahoo CEO Marissa Meyer's newest brainstorm is to force managers to rank their employees on a "bell curve" (most employees fall into the middle or average, maybe 20% excellent and 20% under-performing) and then fire those who are ranked as under achieving. I have no connection to Yahoo, but it strikes me as ingenuous at best that a supposedly "hot shot" woman manager has turned to an outmoded management practice that has been proven to be completely ineffective, but yet instills fear and disloyalty among employees.

The correct spelling of her last name is MAYER.
Yahoo needed a shakeup in all of its policies. The company became soft and therefore non competitive, that's why Mayer was hired.
Many employees who were allowed to from home, were getting paid by Yahoo yet had there own businesses. Many of those have also moved on.
Let's face it. If you do the job you are paid to do, you have nothing to worry about. I do not think she is trying to create a fearful paranoid work environment. Yahoo has no problem attracting top talent and Mayer continues to create shareholder value (HER JOB)
