Again, after nearly 30 years in enterprise, I've repeatedly seen them expanded just before layoffs.

And 360s are nothing more than popularity contests. They're ripe for abuse.

25 years in enterprise here. Different experiences I guess.

I’ve always liked 360s where people get to nominate the folks on their review panel. Those reviews still have a bias, but it’s arguably toward the person being reviewed since they’re picking their own reviewers.

But if they’ve picked their own jury, and still got broadly called-out for being a pain in the butt, that’s not a great sign. If your best working relationships are also bad working relationships - yikes.
