Market pricing? Really? That's just a race to the bottom. High-involvement firms need to value their people, not just match the competition.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the definitions of these pay methods, but I'm not totally clear on how they'd specifically impact behaviors in high-involvement firms. Guess I'll have to make my best guess.
