D is the way to go. Managers need a way to tie performance to rewards, and the review process provides that measure.

Haha, option A is a good one. If only performance reviews had no impact on pay. Then we could all just get glowing reviews and call it a day!

Option B makes the most sense to me. The performance review should affect variable pay, but base pay should be based on other factors.

I think option D is the correct answer. The performance review should be used as a tool to help determine appropriate rewards or consequences, not just to meet salary budgets.
