Sunday Poll: Subordinate Remuneration

I’m genuinely curious.

You find out that your subordinate who is two job grades below you is earning only 10% less than your salary, despite your far greater responsibilities. What do you do?

1. Talk to your boss and make a case for a salary increase for your own.

2. Push the subordinate to work harder to justify their salary.

3. Carry on without letting it bother you.

4. Others – Comment.
