A positive work environment and satisfaction is not just about compensation. Working with other high-performers is good, I agree, except the company policy is that high-performers can be shown the door at any moment due to various changes outside the control of that high-performer.
That's not a good work environment.
- aianus 10y agoThat's a critique that may or may not apply to a given implementation of this idea. However, if the people being fired are treated with respect, severance, good references and if there's a general consensus amongst those remaining that the individuals were, in fact, low performers, I imagine there would be high morale.
- talmand 10y agoIf the definition of low performer is "really nice, hard-working people", then I suppose you have a point. But it would still suck to be hard-working and be let go because the company failed to provide you proper tasks to be considered a high performer. If you give a high performer nothing to do, or something outside their expertise, are they still a high performer?
