KPI system here for research stupid

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Standard package and work-life balance

Cons

The annual KPI system here is stupid and does not fit for research environment, especially life science. It doesn’t really indicate whether the person performance is good or bad throughout the year as the outcomes of life science usually takes more than 1 year.
