What do you mean by "refuse"? If the price is right plenty of people would agree. Although I suspect the value I would bring during night shifts would be net negative...
- jdlshore 3y agoThere’s a point at which money is no longer the deciding factor in people’s decision making. The amount of money required to make it a deciding factor again is uneconomical, and is of the “I’ll do this for a few years, then retire” variety, which is a net negative due to brain drain. So, no, just paying people more isn’t the answer.
- caskstrength 3y agoFrom what I heard salaries of HW engineers are not anywhere close to FAANG SW engineers. I don't think paying double for night shifts would put them anywhere close to “I’ll do this for a few years, then retire”.
