I work in software. Performance reviews are in January. My company is “up or out” I did not get promoted in Q3. I was at meets expectations— I had a rough time with a difficult research project that I didn’t finish. It kind of seems like half my team gets promoted each half year. That being said I am by far the lowest performer on my team because most people are L5-L6 PhD grads and I am at L3 Masters grad.

Mostly doing this market for motivation and accountability. By this year I mean this upcoming promo cycle which is January.
