It may have been easier for him to lower his own compensation and pay everyone a bonus, based in part on longevity.
Obviously, that wasn’t a well-thought out plan
He’s a bloody idiot.
Lol
U failed to read article MM
Shamey shamey
He did lower his pay
Non meritorious egalitarian pay structure is a bad idea any time
Even properly done bonuses create issues even with good employees
I’ve been dealing with all this since 1975 when I determined Christmas bonus for my first crew at 18
I still don’t have a magic system
I listen to my wife’s good instincts about people at bonus time
I tend to think I can buy loyalty
pay everyone a bonus, based in part on longevity
Yes, much more effective. Many surveys are around that put pay at a lower importance in employee satisfaction.
Fairness, support, showing appreciation, training and business participation are much more important. Profit sharing or bonus is the way to go.
Scale salaries to market demand or, at the most, slightly above.
