Yep, if under some level (ie everyone under a VP with 50-300 engineers) basically every division needs to hit 5/30/30/30/5 then you do indeed have a stack ranking, just under a different name.
The main difference is that being in that bottom 30 is usually not “bad” under that system, ie it will have maybe a 0.8-0.9x expected bonus multiplier. Whereas under most stack ranking systems that call themselves as such, a D grade might mean that if you get another D you’ll be in hot water
