Wow, thats just sad. If the only way employees at your company can get their performance noticed is in a yearly performance review, you need a better job.
It will be noticed (you might get a "good job") just not rewarded in any monetary way as there is no process for that to happen (outside of finding a new job and demanding a raise to stay). The person who has the authority to give me a raise (and I suspect even he'd need approval to do that) lives in another state and I've spoken to him twice.
I'm getting married in a few months. I'm going to look at other jobs when I get back from my honeymoon.
