Cons
Workforce Architecture- VSP's stated goal in the HR guide is "to pay employees between the minimum and midpoint pay amounts." New Hires are often hired at or slightly below the midpoint. This effectively means that the vast majority of new hires will make more, sometimes significantly more, than tenured people, especially those who started with the company at a lower level position. Also, if the majority of staff on a team are below the midpoint, is it really a midpoint? Promotion raise is capped at 5% for Individual Contributor Track, so don't count on getting paid at the end of the rainbow. Supervisor Title is the same classification and salary band whether you manage a call center team, analyst team, or developer team. So dumb, I still can't figure out how this got implemented. Unemployment is 3.5%. This model isn't working in the labor market.
