I recently started working for a pretty well known company. All seemed to be going well until I had my first review. My boss told me that I was bad at my job, even though I was still new and settling in.
The kicker was when I asked my colleagues, all newbies like myself, if they'd had a review. The answer was no.
Second review, my boss is pissed off that I took a certain amount of time to do something. I've always been told I'm slow and please bear in mind it was in the evening when I was doing this task so I was pretty tired.
I'm going to have a third soon and I'm always asked if I'd like to say something at the end of it, and to be honest I'm tired of feeling like shit about these reviews so I'm going to prepare a statement, explaining why I'm slow and certain other things that were pointed out. Is this a good idea?
