No it won't. Companies will just start measuring and paying for results.

  If it were that simple they already would be doing it.

  They've been trying to do that for quite some time. It's no easy feat. https://dilbert.com/strip/1995-11-13 https://dilbert.com/strip/1995-11-13

    Talk about a perverse incentive, haha "I'm gonna write me a new minivan this afternoon" If only.

  I always find this to be a funny point in these conversations. The entire discipline of "agile development" exists because it's so hard to have foresight into the requirements of a software product up-front. By extension, I don't see how we think it's possible to define expectations for employees up-front and then pay them only based on results. If you look at agencies within our industry, for instance, about 0% of them will work on fixed-price contracts - it's always time-and-materials. Knowing what we know about software development, I don't see how individual employment can fundamentally be any different...
