Reviews people actually finish
Start a review for everyone, one team or one person. Employees fill in a self-review, managers write theirs with the notes and goals beside them, and the employee reads it and signs.
Goals, 1-on-1s and raises live in the same place, so a review is never written from memory.
How a review works
Start a review
Pick who, the form (HRGP standard, a short check-in or one for field staff) and the due dates. Turn on 90-day reviews and new hires get one on their own.
Employees fill in a self-review
Each person gets an email and a to-do in My Employee Portal. They rate each question from 1 to 5 and add comments.
Managers write theirs
The self-review, goals, 1-on-1 notes and earlier reviews sit beside the form. Draft from my notes writes a short summary to edit; it never picks a rating.
Look it over, share and sign
If you want, HR or the owner approves it first. The employee reads it, can add a comment, and signs that they have read it.
Also in Performance
- Goals with a percent, a number or done-or-not, check-ins and an optional reminder.
- 1-on-1s with a shared list, shared notes and private manager notes. Unticked items move to the next meeting.
- Raise rounds: a budget, guidance by review rating, a worksheet for each manager, flags for anything unusual, then new pay records and pay change letters when you finish.
- Pay ranges for each job, from your own job postings.
- Emails never include ratings, answers, notes or pay amounts.
Performance questions
Can an employee see what the manager wrote before it's finished?
No. The employee sees the manager's part only once it's shared.
Does the AI rate people?
No. Draft from my notes writes a few sentences from the manager's own comments, goals and 1-on-1 notes. The manager edits it and picks every rating.
Does a raise change pay in payroll?
When you finish a raise round, someone with Full payroll access can update pay. HRGP adds a new pay record from the start date and keeps the old one.
