I'm not saying the guys on the lower end don't work hard, simply that earnings should be earned. Job performance is a huge part of what someone should earn, but experience and loyalty also play a role. There is a reason people don't start at top of the range pay when entering a new field.
What's not to say job performance is a big part of the new pay plan? This is a business, not a charity.
I had two different kinds of professors in college: The ones that started your grades at zero and then the cool one that said on the first day "Right now everyone has an A. It's your job to maintain that grade".
Henry Ford believed in paying his mechanics an excellent wage and in return he got better results and longer term employees that cost him less in training and ramp up time.
To believe that anyone starting out a job is worth less than an old timer who has figured out how to work the system and maximize their earnings while minimizing their labor is antiquated thinking. Now YOU as a boss have to compete for better workers, not the other way around.
