Sorry, but this is kinda separate: This is literally what labour unions are for?

I would love it if unions entered my workplace but we're far to complex and technical. Not to mention in my industry we go through a good 2-3 restructures a year (yeah I know it's bat shit insane)

In lieu of a union I made it my personal aim to get all my under paid employee bumped to much higher pays. Which was a problem because my team generally only took on existing employees who showed aptitude for technical and complex stuff.

In returned they got a detailed and complex training on everything from sql, to parsecing very large amounts of data, to building complex mappings and results.

Under older management they were often left on their previous pay. I found that really fucking disgusting so I made sure to build a rating system that fairly rated them but made sure that rated/scored/reviewed work automatically ended up on their end of year statement. It was all built using MS stuff. It was cool. I could go in, score their work, it graded them, weighed for complex vs simplex (and different roles) generating a single score. I could do it all year around so if something flag I could easily raise it in our catch ups. I had 3 teams across the entire country (I did a lot of travelling so I could meet my guys and hang, coffee, beers, lunch etc)

It basically meant that everything was documented and very fucking detailed, and because they were meeting the straight forward no sneaky lawyer trick KPIs it meant they were able to smash it.

So at EOY where we did peer review the other managers tried to shoot down my ratings for my guys (which gave them 10% bumps and hit their STI (approx $2-4k bonus) however kept coming up against the documentation.

It should be the number one goal for any manager to make it realistic and possible for their guys to get their bonus and pay raises.

Coz a happy team is a good fucking team. As a direct result of this effort we solved over 99% of all the work on our ledger by EOY.

If anything we were a little too successful. But that's story for another day.
