Question

What were the metrics on these baseball cards

The baseball cards at Bridgewater, as mentioned in the content, are essentially profiles of each employee. These profiles are created using data collected through reviews, tests, and tracking individual choices. The company uses an algorithm to analyze this data, and the results are reviewed by people for objectivity and believability.

While the specific metrics used for these baseball cards are not mentioned, it can be inferred that they likely include performance metrics, behavioral tendencies, and other relevant data that can provide a comprehensive view of an employee's capabilities and potential.

Remember, the goal of these baseball cards is to help the company make informed decisions about its employees, so the metrics used would be those that can provide valuable insights in this regard.
