But employee performance reviews are critical documents to have on file for when an employee moves on to a new position. They give managers and employees a chance to find out if they see eye to eye on the employee’s past performance. The results can be surprising.

For managers, it can be tough thinking of what to say beyond “good job.” Writing effective performance reviews isn’t easy, but Life123 offers performance review tips and samples that cover employees who met goals and employees who didn’t.
