Stack ranking is back, y'all — and we’re not clapping. In our Season 2 finale, we’re calling out the lazy leadership, performative culture, and warped sense of “objectivity” fueling the comeback of rank-and-yank reviews.

HR strategist Greer Procich joins Marion, Danny, and Cacha to unpack why stack ranking never really went away — it just got rebranded. From AI-driven “calibration” to the gaslighting of good employees, we’re naming the elephant in the org (again).

We dig into:
• Why stack ranking is a shortcut, not a strategy
• The toll on collaboration, inclusion, and psychological safety
• How managers are set up to fail — and who benefits
• The weaponization of performance tools under the guise of “efficiency”
• What HR pros can actually do when stuck between values and a VP with a spreadsheet

💥 Plus: neurodivergence bias, TikTok therapy critiques, and a few too-real stories from inside the HR trenches.

It’s bold. It’s unfiltered. It’s the end of Season 2.
We’re taking a break for summer, but don’t worry — we’ll be back this fall with Season 3, louder and spicier than ever.
