A business decides on pay as a compromise between talent, motivation, personality, and the job needed. This is a case-by-case basis as people are not generic. Employers in today's global market hold fewer cards than they ever have. For example, let's say you want to hire a DBA. Do you as the employer hold all of the cards if you find a really talented person that fits your team? No. Because the DBA can go elsewhere. You must compete to get that talent to your buiness or compromise by getting a less talented, worse fitting employee. And even worse, the DBA may go to a competitor or *become* a competitor! So it's much cheaper for you to hire the talent than to fight it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:188999 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
