You have no problem describing your teammates like that in a formal review? I am not sure how that would go here, I haven't tried. Like I said, so far every company I've worked for either didn't do formal reviews at all or it was entirely assessed by your manager without any conversation.

A lot depends on the context.

I was/am on a team that underperforms, so they are already primed to blame someone. They have already fired people (poorly) over the failures.

So they are looking for someone to blame already.

Is the firing poor or are the people poor?
