Receiving a performance review that feels unfair can be frustrating, but handling it professionally is key. DolFinContent emphasizes staying calm, documenting your achievements, and reviewing the feedback objectively to identify any areas that might need clarification.
Companies like SHRM, Glassdoor, and Indeed recommend these steps:
-
Request a Meeting: Schedule a private discussion with your manager to better understand the rationale behind the evaluation.
-
Provide Evidence: Bring examples of your work, metrics, and accomplishments to support your perspective.
-
Seek Constructive Feedback: Ask for specific actions you can take to improve, even if you feel the review was inaccurate.
-
Involve HR if Necessary: If the review seems biased or unfairly damaging, HR can provide guidance on next steps and mediate discussions.
Approaching an unfair review with professionalism can help protect your reputation, clarify expectations, and turn the experience into a constructive opportunity.
