Not all 15Five roles have the same permissions. Some roles have default permissions that cannot be changed, while other permissions can be managed based on feature. To give you an idea of who can do and see what in 15Five, permissions for each role are listed below.
Note
15Five account administrators cannot see all people's Check-ins by default- only global viewers have this ability. Reach out to our Support Team to make someone a global viewer.
Reporters/Direct reports: Can manage their own profile and pull custom reports based on hierarchy and follow settings.
Reviewers/Managers: Can create/modify individual questions for their direct reports, manage their direct reports' Check-in due dates and people's profiles, and pull custom reports based on hierarchy and follow settings.
Group administrators: Can add group-specific questions and change visibility settings within their group. Only managers or account administrators can be appointed as group administrators.

Review administrators: Can create/manage review cycles and question templates, as well as view answers on all submitted reviews. Review administrators may or may not be able to see the identity of various review writers, depending on the visibility settings for the cycle.
Only account administrators can be added as review administrators. There can be multiple review administrators.

HR admin: The HR administrator role pops up when demographic attributes are enabled (typically for 15Five/Engagement integration customers). This is the only role that can manage or edit demographic attributes.
Global viewers: Can see all Check-ins (including past, current, and future) of every individual within their company, see any objectives that are set to 15Five permissions, and pull all company data in custom reports and view all dashboard metrics. Global viewers cannot see people's 1-on-1s or any item marked as private (for example, private objectives, private 15Five answers, or private comments).
The "global viewer" permission is typically reserved for HR teams, co-leaders, and administrators. There can be multiple global viewers in a company.

Account owners: Can run a report containing ALL questions and answers for everyone who has been active or is currently active in 15Five—this is on the Company settings>>>Export page. The export is not to be confused with the Questions dashboard in Reporting where account owners must be global viewers to see all questions and answers. There can be more than one account owner.
