Lattice

Pros: The interface can be handled very easily since it is simple to use and also intuitive that facilitates navigation and access to different functions. It also integrates well with other tools like Slack and Teams for seamless communication and reminders.

My individual goals can be set and tracked, as well as aligned with my team and company goals. I can also see how my goals support the overall corporate vision and strategy. This helps me stay focused and motivated on what matters most.

It allows me to have regular and meaningful 1:1 meetings with my work team. I can create a shared agenda, add notes, action items, comments, and praise. This makes our conversations more productive and collaborative. I also appreciate the ability to review past 1:1s and track my progress over time.

It helps and facilitates a smooth and painless performance review process. I can easily write self-reviews, peer reviews, and manager reviews using customizable templates and workflows. I can also access feedback from multiple sources, including goals, 1:1, surveys, etc. This gives me a holistic and accurate picture of my performance and areas for improvement.

It is useful because it provides valuable insight into my strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges using powerful people analytics tools. I can also see how I compare to others in my role or department using benchmarks and ratings. This helps me identify gaps in my skills and competencies and plan my professional development accordingly.

Cons: Lattice can sometimes be too repetitive or intrusive with its weekly updates and pulse polls. I understand the importance of tracking my goals and commitment, but I don't always have something new or different to report each week. I wish there was more flexibility or customization in how often or when these features are activated.

It doesn't offer much transparency or explanation on some of its models or algorithms. For example, I don't know how you calculate Net Promoter Score (NPS) or Employee Engagement Score (EES). I also don't know how you weight or adjust comments or ratings from different sources. This makes me question the validity or reliability of some of the data or insights that Lattice provides.

It could improve its goal editing panel and org chart feature. I find it annoying that every time I add or update a goal the view resets and I have to scroll back to where I was. I also find it difficult to navigate or visualize the org chart as it is not very clear or interactive.

Overall: Lattice is a great tool for any company that wants to promote a culture of continuous feedback, growth, and success among its employees. It has helped me improve my performance, commitment and job satisfaction. It has also helped me build stronger relationships with my manager and peers. I would recommend Lattice to anyone who is looking for a robust and easy to use performance management solution.
