Performance Evaluation
In your role as manager, you will be responsible for completing performance evaluations for each of your assigned group’s employees {{ if player.condition == 3 or player.condition == 4 }}and allocating the group’s discretionary bonus pool{{ endif }}.
Specifically, you will rate the overall performance of each employee on a scale of 1-100 (with 1 representing poor performance and 100 representing outstanding performance) {{ if player.condition == 3 or player.condition == 4 }}and allocate a discretionary bonus pool of 300 points between the group’s four employees in any proportion you choose{{ endif }}. Employees will learn the results of your performance evaluations {{ if player.condition == 3 or player.condition == 4 }} and discretionary bonus pool allocations {{ endif }}only after the study has concluded, and will never know that you were the manager of the group.
To assist in the performance evaluation {{ if player.condition == 3 or player.condition == 4 }}and bonus {{ endif }}process{{ if player.condition == 3 or player.condition == 4 }}es{{endif}}, you will be provided with the following information:
| 1. | The total output for each employee. As shown earlier, this includes work units completed by the employee themselves, as well as any work units completed for their benefit by other employees. |
| 2. | Whether or not each employee spent time working to increase the total output of another employee (but not how much time they spent or how many work units they completed). |
| 3. | Whether or not each employee had another employee (or employees) spend time working to increase their total output on their behalf (but not how much time was spent completing this work by other employees or how many work units were completed by other employees). |
Thus, while each employee can spend time completing work that increases the total output of another employee, you will not learn which employees spent time working to increase another employee’s total output, or which employees had others spend time working to increase their total output on their behalf.
{{ endif }}For example, you may receive the following information pertaining to the work period:
| Employee | Employee total output | {{ if player.condition == 2 or player.condition == 4 }}Spent time working to increase the total output of another employee | Had another employee (or other employees) spend time working to increase their total output on their behalf | {{ endif }}
| A | 80 | {{ if player.condition == 2 or player.condition == 4 }}Yes | No | {{ endif }}
| B | 100 | {{ if player.condition == 2 or player.condition == 4 }}Yes | Yes | {{ endif }}
| C | 110 | {{ if player.condition == 2 or player.condition == 4 }}No | Yes | {{ endif }}
| D | 90 | {{ if player.condition == 2 or player.condition == 4 }}No | No | {{ endif }}
