I work in IT mostly and sometimes I write software. My reviews are very good, or at least we're, the company is probably going to stop doing them (I was the only one they did it for). I got some feedback on communication and the fact that our ticketing system was so borked it was impossible to keep track of stuff. That's been solved now thank God.

Root772316yI have never recieved constructive reviews or criticism. I had one "superior" (my boss's autistic brother) who gave me lots of criticism, basically none of it constructive.
Every developer boss I've had has said that I was teaching them instead, and that they weren't qualified to review my code. Nice compliments, bot exactly helpful 😕. By contrast, every non-developer boss I've had hasn't liked me, or has outright hated me. Probably because I tell them no when they ask for stupid things and/or tell them why it's stupid instead of sinply agreeing and building what they need instead.
Oh well.
Hopefully that will change in this new job!

Just had my performance review conversation with my manager today and basically it's another "great work"
Which is what I get every year. So wondering does anyone actually get constructive criticism or things they should improve upon?
