> So, anyone who helps someone else, is getting zero recognition for it.

Where I've worked, this is what 360 peer review during performance reviews is.

If your colleagues all say you're super-helpful, that's part of what it takes to get promoted.

If your colleagues all say you're selfish and never help out, this is something that needs to be addressed immediately.

It's a metric like any other, it's just collected twice a year rather than bimonthly, and it's qualitative rather than quantitative. But it's analyzed at the same time and given lots of weight when it comes to promotions.
