Sombra Cuts Review Cycle Setup To Less Than 1 Hour
Overwhelmed by the workload of planning, implementing, and reviewing employee feedback, Sombra's HR team sought a solution to automate and simplify performance management processes.
Sombra is a Ukrainian software company that grew rapidly in the toughest time. Despite wartime challenges, the company’s employees increased by 56% over the past 2 years and they were named one of Clutch’s top software development companies in 2022.
Sombra's HR team was overwhelmed by the workload of planning, implementing, and reviewing employee feedback, and was seeking a solution to automate and simplify performance management processes.
Despite its growing momentum, Sombra remains committed to delivering high-quality services and maintaining a high-performance team.
To do that, Sombra conducts continuous feedback and performance evaluation for their employees. This allows their employees to be more productive as individuals and teams.
Sombra uses the continuous feedback framework alongside bi-annual 360 reviews. This allows HR to gather feedback from several parties, including managers, peers, subordinates, customers, and the employee themselves. The HR manager gathers the feedback and shares it with the manager and employee. Then, they discuss it at the meeting, and the employee sets personal development goals.
With Peoplelogic, managing performance is faster, easier, and less stressful. It helps us gather feedback and organize review cycles without hundreds of forms and sheets. Employees started to fill out reviews faster, Peoplelogic is like a game for them.
