Overtime Pay or Bonuses and Stock Options ?
There is an interesting article in the New York Times today, describing the announcement by Electronic Arts, the world's largest independent video game maker, that they will begin to offer overtime pay to some employees. However, these employees will no longer be eligiable for bonuses or stock options.
Electronic Arts was in the spotlight a while ago, after a letter from an employee's wife appeared on the Internet, accusing the company of abusing its employees by forcing them to work tremendous amounts of (unpaid) overtime.
So, what do you think ? Which would you choose - overtime pay or bonuses and stock options ?
