Merit/Salary Freeze will be lifted when more global warming melts the ice - werkgeversreview Senior Software Consultant bij BMC Software

During the recent all hands meeting the #1 question asked was "when do we expect to have the the merit Increasesalary freeze lifted?". The answer - "when the market demands it!" In other words, regardless of how much productivity and revenue are being realized even after all the downsizing; BMC will lift the freeze only when it's been determined that we're loosing employees to the competition due to compensation issues. What kind of short sidedness is this? Why not stay ahead of the curve instead of waiting for good people to leave. Very, very telling in my opinion.
