Whole article worth checking out but some quotes below:
This part in particular is crazy to me:At GrantTree staff first gather information about what others are paid elsewhere for roles similar to their own, Cecilia told BBC Radio 5 Live's Wake Up To Money, in other words how much the firm would have to spend to replace them.
Then they look at how much the company can afford to pay them, and think about how much they have grown as individuals since they first started.
"Based on this data you make a proposal that is reviewed by colleagues," says Cecilia.
"This is quite important, because colleagues are not there to say yes or no, or to approve it. They are there to ask questions and give you some feedback.
After that feedback the employee decides on a figure.
"The key point is that nobody has to prove it; once you make a decision that pay now happens," she says.
Lol at this part:Cecilia says that two members of staff at GrantTree actually chose to voluntarily reduce their pay after their responsibilities changed.
"A fairly junior person didn't comprehend that the salary increase she was asking for was too much, she was asking for a 50% increase on her salary, which was far more than the role was worth.
"It was her decision but I told her: 'you can take it but if you become uneconomical or your value is not justified then that will only end one way'.
"She reduced what she was asking for after that."
Obviously right now this is only realistic at smaller tech startups but hypothetically how would you feel if your employer had this system?
