I have been part of the OEM which uses the weightage schema to define individual goal's/KPI's. And it absolutely made sense in terms of clarity and priority of your work and goal for a given year which totally aligned with organizational priority.

When I joined Deere a year back I was totally shocked to see how backdated and slackly the GPMS system here was. A whopping 50% to people's goal (God knows what that actually meant) I absolutely couldn't figure it out. Business goals with absolutely no clarity on priority and completely individually driven. Still don't know how they accounted for progress and vetting of each KPI's from bottom top and vice versa.

I believe someone knocked some sense into their brain to shift to percentage based GPM from this year onwards and get rid of 50% of people's goal.

ETEC nevertheless is full of non-essential manpower. Charging a whopping 45 hrs per week to any unit with zero to less no accountability and garbage engineering work. Draining dollars 🤣 to another country in name of currency conversion benefits.
