“capping the ratio of median and maximum salaries”
Putting a cap on the ratio of median and maximum salaries within a company is an interesting idea, but it could have negative consequences. For example, if a company has a maximum salary cap that is too low, they may struggle to attract and retain top talent. Additionally, some industries require highly specialized skills and experience that demand high salaries. It's important to let the market determine salaries, rather than impose arbitrary caps. In a free market, companies compete for top talent and wages are determined by supply and demand. What do you think about this?
