Then just send the point form. You'll gain time by not having to write the word stuffing, they'll gain time by not having to read the word stuffing.

This is just adding noise to the signal, if you don't even bother to write the text why would someone bother reading it ? It's annoying for everyone and doesn't add any value

I (as an engineer) don't care if my colleagues send me point form.

However, HR and managers are the ones who made the decision that I have to write these lengthy reviews. How do you propose I proceed?

I could either:

- Tell my manager / HR that I'm not willing to do that

- Find a different job

- Or just put up with it, and use tools like this to make it more bearable.
