How's the feedback proccess at Electronic Arts (EA)?

Asked to all employees at Electronic Arts (EA)

  • You find 3 people to write good stuff about you in Workday at the end of the year. Your manager then finds other people who don't like you to write reviews about you (on the basis that you work with them, but you don't). This is to block you from moving to roles outside of your area. It's a vicious and negative cycle that continues until you either manage to find another team to move to, or you quit.
