That's not universal, it factors in at some points at least at some universities, my wife is going through her reappointment after her first year as a professor at an R2 HBCU and teacher evals are part of it from what I've heard of the process there and she was definitely hired as principally a research oriented professor.
I can speak of Europe, is /mostly/ so (certainly not 100%) Poorer countries, paradoxically, because have less research, people teaching are there for, and like, teaching, explaining.
