Yes, my point exactly. I think it's cheaper to pay people a reasonable salary and less job security. Otherwise it just ends up being a lot of dead weight throughout the organization. This dead weight leads to low productivity, which in turn e.g. leads the management to bring on expensive consultants to try and fix it.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoMy point was that you need to pay market rates, not semi market rates for that. The trade off of compensation for job security should not be occurring.
- Oddskar 5y agoAha, sure. My intention with "semi" was to indicate that it would still not be anywhere near FAANG-levels; but rather closer to a median "good" salary.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIf it needs to be FAANG level to attract the workers you need, then it needs to be FAANG level. I do not see why there would be any arbitrary limit. I remember when healthcare.gov was launched and the clusterfuck it was, and then a much of FAANG level employees had to quickly go and clean it up as charity.
