This issue seems to have been put on the back burner for many larger companies lately. Their focus has shifted to quantity over quality. Especially the businesses that know a customer will return, due to lack of a better option.

The Toyota recalls are a little disheartening for me. I am a huge fan of Toyota and feel that they make an incredible product, but some would beg to differ with all the recalls that they've had.

This issue strikes a cord with me as well. While in the service, supervisors had to write these annually. They turned into huge issues due to the unreliability of them. Everyone would get the highest marks possible and if you didn't them you were shunned. On the other hand, if you as a supervisor didn't give you subordinate the highest marks, you were questioned like you were a suspect for murder. Either way, they weren't effective and are now being revised and not in a good way.
