> If you can do it better than it is done traditionally, start your own company and eat their lunch. You can't make a company do anything objectively better through these insights, though in specific cases things would get done sooner, and even if you could which company is going to listen to someone saying that they should pay their employees more. In fact lots of management "wisdom" goes exactly against that, they see their engineers as idiots manipulated by pop psychology. Not people who deserve to get wealthy. It's just that operationally they adversely affect the economy, not necessarily the company. As I said usually the companies exercising this sort of behavior are already doing well. They have plenty of profit and plenty of money in the bank. It's those size of companies that have the sort of managerial class that practices this sort of behavior. And the managerial class justifies it, and the CEO believes it, so it continues. Who pays is the economy at large, and engineers who are not becoming wealthy who continue to be wage slaves. But lots of CEOs and managers believe that this is exactly how things should be. You can't change this by starting your own company. Because then you are a CEO or a manager. And if one company pays their employees well and does well, well that changes very little. Companies are simply systems, there are many ways to run them and still be profitable.
