No. Nobody said transparent salaries mean set salaries. Transparent salaries mean MORE room for negotiation.
For example:
"You are our top performer."
"Then why am I in the 10th percentile for people I work with? Can I have a bigger raise to fix that?"
"Nobody got a raise this year." (Which you can see is a lie, upper management gave themselves a raise while telling the peons they didn't have money for a raise)
Everyone understands that salaries are going to be different for different people who perform at different rates.
- swombat 13y agoDefinitely, though in GrantTree the process of defining how different performance is rewarded is still a work in progress. We set things up so that the team decides together how much people should be paid (that's a lot more complex than it sounds on the surface - lots of ways to do it wrong). Currently, if someone feels they are underpaid, they need to convince their peers that that's the case, rather than cozy up to their manager and then argue for an exceptional pay raise.
