In practice
How technology businesses actually use it
A 200-person company ran annual reviews using Word document templates emailed between managers and HR. Completion rates were below 50% and the process took 3 months.
A growing tech company wanted to implement quarterly OKRs but had no framework. Objectives were set informally and rarely tracked.
The problem
Technology HR problems that performance management solves
Remote and hybrid workforce
Distributed teams across time zones need HR tools that work anywhere, on any device, without office-based assumptions.
Rapid scaling
Tech companies grow fast. Onboarding 10 people per month requires streamlined, repeatable processes.
Developer expectations
Tech teams expect modern UX, API access, and integration with their existing tools. Clunky HR systems get ignored.
Retention and engagement
Competitive talent market means performance management, development, and employee experience must be excellent.
Questions
Performance Management FAQ
Can we run different review cycles for different teams?
Yes. You can configure review cycles by department, team, or individual. Engineering might run quarterly reviews while sales runs monthly check-ins.
How does 360° feedback work?
When a review cycle starts, the employee completes a self-assessment. You can then nominate peers, direct reports, and external stakeholders to provide feedback. All responses are aggregated and can be anonymised.
Can employees see their own review history?
Yes, employees have full access to their own reviews, objectives, development plans, and 1-to-1 notes. Transparency is a core principle: there are no hidden assessments.
Does it support probation reviews?
Yes. CubeHR tracks probation end dates and can automatically trigger a probation review cycle. Managers get reminders, and the outcome (pass, extend, fail) is recorded with full audit trail.
