Even if there's a single promotion per team per year (and there are certainly companies where promotions are not limited like that), that means that, in a team of 4 people, 50% will be promoted in 2 years. So if you like the job and plan to stay for a few years, I fail to see how this tactics is even remotely close to optimal.

It's an analysis based on The Office; maybe read it and critique the 20k word write-up (in the link) instead of the 4-point summary.
