City employees still don’t get regular performance evaluations, watchdog says – Chicago Sun-Times*

Departing Inspector General Joe Ferguson warned last fall the city’s failure to conduct regular evaluations for nearly half of its 33,000 employees left personnel decisions “vulnerable to appearances and suspicions of favoritism.” Ferguson noted evaluations are “critical” in any workplace, but even more important for government employees, who are “paid through tax dollars.”

It is probably better that they don’t do evaluations. We all know that the evaluations would have no impact on performance or pay.

What would happen is that all city employees would be evaluated as “outstanding” in the performance review. Then those evaluation results would be used to “prove” what an outstanding job the city is doing.

Let’s not pretend that city employment is anything like private sector employment.
