Performance reviews

Biannual performance reviews lean on the outcomes of individual OKRs and expectations detailed on our careers ladders to provide a consistent and fair assessment of team members.

• ✍️ Each team member is involved in setting team OKRs and defining personal objectives, based on team OKRs, with their manager. Team members meet weekly with their manager to review the progress towards OKRs, to help keep them on track to delivery and succeed.
  • We recognise that OKRs can be set at varying levels of difficulty and although we can do our best to calibrate them across the company, we expect that some will be too easy and some too ambitious. Therefore, we also take into account performance against business as usual.
• 🪜 Career ladders define expectations around roles and responsibilities for each job and at each level.

An assessment is carried out based on a team member’s contribution to Sequence through their Outcomes and Behaviours, which have equal weighting reflecting our expectation that how you do you work matters as much as the impact of your work.

| Outcomes (O)

The ‘what’ | Rating: 1 (low) - 4 (high) | Outcomes describe the results from or impact of your work.

Outcomes differ from outputs, which refers to “doing the work”, as opposed to the impact of the work. | Manager and Report set expectations according to ‣ | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Behaviours (B)

The ‘how’. | Rating: 1 (low) - 4 (high) | Behaviours describe how a team member delivers their work and the way they demonstrate our company values in everything they do. | ‣ |

Progression

Performance (OvB rating over time) determines the speed of job level and compensation progression — it is not a linear function of years or experience. We work on the basis that our top talent should be extremely excited by the opportunities for role and salary progression here at Sequence.
