During the 1980s Microsoft adopted the Bell Curve Employee assessment tool, also known as 'Stack Ranking'
The system forced each department to assess their employees at the end of the year and grade them under 'top-performers', 'average' 'below-average' and 'poor'
The idea was to 'cull' employees that were not contributing and ensure high-performers get bonuses and promotions.
The system worked very well in the 80s and the 90s.
