Currently, Microsoft and other software companies are giving enormous
salaries to the very top level of executives, while at the same time, laying
off staff. This gives the impression of both entitlement and impropriety.
As a leader in American Industry, I invite Microsoft to lead the way by
cutting CEO and all upper management staff salaries by 15% and reallocating
these monies to hire more staff. In addition, sale department "perks" are
often very costly -- why not reduce expensive conferences and bonuses, so
that more money can be paid to development and administrative staff
departments.
The current system encourages narrow, "thinking-in-the-box" ways of doing
things, harms morale for hard-working employees, and creates a royalty and
serf dichotomy. The 15% cut in upper management salaries and bonuses will
hardly be felt by them (many of them are wealthy), but would be appreciated
by the people who work so very hard for them and are often ignored.
