No payrises in benchmarking ? "Shock"

I have a lot of friends working in the ESB. I have the inside story here and let me assure you , they do almost nothing all day. They spend half the day on the phone to each other or on the internet looking at sites like this one. They also take a tea break every 30 minutes. One lad left the private sector for one such cushy job and got a pay rise of 15 grand with less work.
 
Just FYI, I ws advised recently that the ESB had implemented a very tough version of the public sector PMDS performance management system, including Jack Welch-like identification of the weakest 10% of people to be managed out.
 
... including Jack Welch-like identification of the weakest 10% of people to be managed out.....

I first read about Jack Welches "Weakest 10%" in the late Eighties! I know the ESB have a name for being progressive but this twenty years later!! I dont know do GE still employ the technique? I know at the time very few corporations adopted the approach.
