When website got the penalty, then site has no any other way to recover ranking. Some site owners made the site panda friendly but not recover his ranking then they complain about this, but the site did not recover ranking automatically and Google not index all the site every time. When next panda update lunched, then every site re-crawled by Google and at that time the Google note down the changes of the site. If they found positive changes inside the site then improve his ranking.
