A new policy means soldiers can be asked to rate their bosses.

Oct. 1 was the deadline for Army Officers to have completed at least one 360-degree evaluation, in addition to their Officer Evaluation Record, the Army Times reports.

Army officials say the evaluations are meant to help officers grow and weed out potentially toxic leaders.
