Upper management put me in an awkward situation at work, Or at least feel like they have. An opportunity opened up at my job for about the 7th time in the two years I have been there. Whenever I approached this opportunity, I was given multiple reasons, most concerning States and performance. I have exceeded the goals provided for me each time, and my goals were double, if not triple, co-workers in the same role.
Long story short, while my performance on the spreadsheets is impressive, and my stats are some of the highest in the company, my treatment of co-workers is abysmal, and this is why upper management was passing over my submission based on reports that my manager was submitting. They were under the impression I was making marginal improvements. This caught me off guard and floored me. I was not sure how to defend myself. Besides knowing I only want to see my co-workers succeed, I would never put them down.
Their solution was to blind survey my team and ask questions about me.

It just feels weird. Has anyone else ever had something like this happen to them at work? Yes, I am allowed to read them, and everything appears to be positive, but I will not know who submitted them, and it just feels weird.
