The issue is wether everybody realizes they aren't doing the same job.

Comparing performance of people is a lot more subjective than comparing food. Your comparing apples to oranges here.
If performance was easy to compare, it'd be a lot easier to push for transparent salary information.

- sokoloff 7y agoBecause people’s performance is different, even if it’s hard to reduce that to a numeric score in a totally objective way. When I look back over my career, I know which 20 or so engineers I’d want to hire for a startup where engineering mattered. Even if I can’t assign an exact percentage how much better they were, I sure know who they are.
