But on the other hand, refusing to pay someone who’s good idea didn’t work out and ‘have impact’ for no fault of their own also seems exploitative!
Letting the person running the project take all the risk, might not be optimal, but I would also say it is not exploitative as long as they know this from the start.
I’m not yet sure if I think the amount of money should be 100% based on actual impact, or if we also want to reward people for project that had high expected impact but low actual impact. The main argument for focusing on actual impact is that it is less objective.
I think people who are using this type of work as a living should get paid a salary with benefits and severance. A project to project lifestyle doesn’t seem conducive to focusing on impact.
Um, I was going to argue with this. But actually I think you are right.
Something like: “We like what you have done so far, so we will hire you to keep doing good things based on your own best judgment.”
