I vaguely recall a practice question about adjusting review results for budget reasons, so option C might be relevant, but I’m not entirely confident.

I think option B sounds familiar because it mentions variable pay, which we covered in class. But I'm a bit confused about how tenure fits into that.

Hmm, I wonder if any of the options include bribery or brown-nosing as factors in the performance review process. Just asking for a friend.
