A $2500 bonus ($250 million divided by 10k employees) is also a small amount to pay.

- porpoisemonkey 9y ago$250,000,000 divided by 10,000 people is $25,000 per person, not $2,500 per person.
- humanrebar 9y agoRight you are! Point is that I've been reluctant to take certain kinds of jobs because the company seems unserious in different ways (building a good product, providing career opportunities, etc.). Paying more, in bonuses or salary, alleviates these concerns for me. There's a lot of talk about recruiting good CEOs through better pay. At least in some organizations, the ability to recruit engineering talent (or at least engineering leadership) is just as paramount.
