I have worked, mainly in IT, for 35+ years.
In that time I have had a lot of jobs, everything from small one-man businesses to large multinationals, from government to entertainment.
In many of those positions, it was deemed necessary to have KPIs (Key Performance Indicators).
Some companies took it more seriously than others, some provided them, some I had to provide to them, and then justify.
All, without any exception whatsoever, were a complete and utter waste of my time.
Everyone I have spoken to says the same thing. I have never met anyone, with the exception of HR personnel, who believe KPIs (certainly in the software development industry) to be a good thing.
So I thought I'd ask you jolly Loungers - Any positive experiences of using KPIs?
(obviously the reason for this post is that the company I am now working for have decided that we need to develop some KPIs for the devs. I'm clinging to the hope that there's a reason beyond the fact that they just hired a new HR person.)

I would be the first to agree with you..The company currently I am working have provided with a set of KPIs which are totally bu** sh*t and are not at all quanitifiable..I am not sure how this crap is being used to evaluate the performance of a employee....
|
|
|
|
|
|
The point is the KPIs not measurable...and it does not provide a meaning to the work we currently do...
