How about just pay them to the value they bring? Why did location ever play a part? If the dev works on a rarely used admin app, surprise, you pay them lower.

- joshuamorton 9y agoThis creates perverse incentives among your employees. Now every employee is fighting to work on the "moneymaker" applications. And I don't really believe that a company will be able to accurately assess the value that every application used brings it.
- sidlls 9y agoEmployees already jostle to position themselves on the projects they think the leadership values more. That has nothing to do with whether leadership can accurately assess the value of the projects and applications that are developed in general (a point I agree with you on).
- hajile 9y agoThe weakest link in the chain. If a company's working on a bad project that will never contribute, it's good to kill it. If you work on a money-center, that's obviously good, but if you work on the thing that allows the money-center to continue to be a money-center, that's just as good even if not as obvious.
