Goodbye Cake or Just Plain Goodbye?

Why Managers Delay Employee Appraisal
I am a senior supervisor who served under five different managers in our 20-year-old company. All of these managers have the same bad habit of delaying my annual appraisal that adversely affected the release of my merit increase. I’ve already brought the matter to our human resource manager who appeared inutile in correcting this problem judging from the complaints of other employees.
