I suppose I can see the distinction in that this allows a company to tailor how much each person makes dependent on their performance in a given time frame.
That said I certainly wouldn't want to work for that company. Basically what they're saying is "we don't trust you the employee to continue to perform optimally so we're going to make you prove yourself each and every (whatever the time period is) to get a bonus" while the employee has to wonder how much their pay check will be every month (or whatever)
That seems more cruel than anything
- run4yourlives 18y agoI'm sorry Tom, but in 95% of for-profit enterprise, you are continually measured against the bottom line, and your performance is constantly evaluated. Most companies do this via your salary in a secretive ranking ladder - which is exactly what Joel is speaking against. I think you agree with him much more than you you think you do. :-)
