I have previously mentioned that employees should be seen as significant investors in the business and should be treated as such.
Apart from "The job" work is not a mental and emotional void. You invest yourself. And it hurts when your investment is ignored or treated as lesser than another human.
Employee pay should be two parts:
- salary as per usual
- significant stock in the business. NB: significant.
50% of stock(non-voting, purely monetary) is for an "employee fund" and come dividend time it is shared equally among employees.
People get their salary they can preen over.
And company profits are tied to individual motivation.
Why should I care if the company does astoundingly well as opposed to being mediocre if I don't have a stake in the outcome?
