Misaligned Incentives Episode 4: You get what you pay for - compensating tech staff is often done poorly
Manage episode 292573960 series 2438005
We discuss compensation, particularly how people in the IT department ("developers," etc.) are so disconnected from the actual business that compensating them based on business performance is near impossible. Not good if you're an IT person and like money.
There's other types of comp. then money, obviously, and those are fine too. In particular, we discuss participation in open source and more recognition. But, still: money is the best.
