Coworker "feedback" sessions are just backdoor ways for managers to get us to snitch on each other and I refuse to play along

Had a one-on-one last week where my boss asked me that classic line, "If you could change one thing about the team, what would it be?" Told her I'd change the thermostat by 2 degrees. She pushed again and I just said everything was fine. But I know for a fact three people on my team were pulled into separate rooms and asked the same thing about me. Three separate meetings, all with leading questions. One guy even got asked if my "energy levels" were a problem. The system is built to pit us against each other and then call it a "culture improvement initiative." Has anyone else noticed how these "feedback" questions always target whoever is out sick that week?

Dude exactly, my boss does the same thing and it's so obvious they're fishing for dirt.

Casey you're not wrong but I think some managers actually mean well and just don't know how to do it right... @caseym48 most of them never got trained on anything except how to run a meeting.
