I got a performance review today. I am generally happy the way I scored. I am happy with the review criteria and the goals I set for myself to accomplish. Things will be tough next year, no doubt about it, but it also gives me a way to really contribute to the team and make the team a whole lot better. I believe that I will have a very good, positive influence on the team.
Next year should be interesting here at Markit. We have a new guy on Connex coming in next week. Another guy will come in next year. Things will improve a lot. I will have a good chance to improve on what we have and hopefully things will not get any worse.
I am quite happy that I was finally able to find a new guy to hire. I don’t think it’s going to be all that nice and easy, but I think Stewart will make this team better and improve on what we currently have. I really do think so.
I think I am going to stay here at Markit for at least 2008. After that, I can evaluate my position/salary/etc and make a decision. By this time next year I should have a better idea.
