> Of course, developers are motivated by extrinsic factors such as salary, health care, vacation time, etc. Why salary is an extrinsic factor? It is intrinsic factor to productivity (yes even the best one). I am not saying money is everything, but it is one of the factors that makes a developer feel whether he/she is respected enough in the company. In a lot of cases, if not treated in time, salary can become the sole reason for quitting the job. A good developer should not have to worry about salary to do his/her job. Therefore, should not be cheated either (in terms of the input the developer gives to the company).
