However, while academical studies about Matrix Organisations reached to its peak in between the end of 1970s and early 1980s, the interest to the Matrix Organisation structure gradually decreased in the following years. Most of the studies are focused on organisation structural design and definitions. On the other hand, studies on the human-side of the Matrix Organisation are very few. This is why we decided to conduct this study on performance evaluation system and career management practices in a matrix structure. Within the scope of the study, in addition to the literature review, a total of 87 enterprises from nine different sectors were contacted and interviews were made with the white-collar employees of 22 enterprises. In-depth interview technique was used as a method in the research. For the in-depth interview, a semi-structured question form was used in the determined topics. Since the research is a qualitative research, it is important to reach the correct data rather than the sample size. As a result, the findings were evaluated only in the light of this sample and were definitely not generalized. The study is intended to be a basis for future studies by providing variables.
