Writing Task 2: Responding to Survey Questions
Read the following information.
You are working in a company offering IT services. Your company is conducting survey to know ways to improve working environment.
Option A:: Give a salary hike to all the employees on the basis of experience.
Job satisfaction survey. :
Option B: Give a salary hike to all the employees on the basis of educational qualification.
Our company's effort to increase the job satisfaction of the employees is worth appreciating. Given the diversity of employees in our organization, I strongly believe a salary hike based on experience is a better choice. There are two main reasons for my preference. Firstly, our company is in the industry since last 15 years, and a lot of employees who joined our company initially had no college degrees, but were great at coding and had excellent skillsets. So, given the demographics of our company, if we will give a salary hike to all the employees based on educational qualifications, then it will plummet the morals of the workers and will affect the culture of the organization as well. Secondly, giving hike based on educational qualification will affect the reputation of our company in the market. A lot of talented, skilled and experienced candidates will restrain from applying to open positions with the fear that they won't get a hike, as they do have experience but lack educational qualifications. Considering these reasons, I would prefer that the salary hike would be given based on experience rather than qualification.
