Pay's not a great motivator for most people in our field, once it gets past a certain low level. There's a summary of an interesting RSA talk at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6XAPnuFjJc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6XAPnuFjJc ; I'd appreciate links to the mentioned studies if anyone has them.
- brg 16y agoWhat you linked to is an animation of a Ted talk by Daniel Pink. This in turn comes out of his book Drive. The thesis is that a higher paycheck will not spur greater creativity; it says nothing about what will spur one to move laterally to a company. All things being equal, people would rather have more pay. People always say that they are making enough at their level; but when the offer comes, it takes about 10% to get someone to move from Redmond to Seattle.
