I'd have to say B is the answer. Can't have high-involvement if you're constantly dangling a financial carrot in front of people, am I right?

Haha, option C is a joke, right? Performance pay is definitely not just for small companies. Even big corporations use it these days.

I'm going with D. Some employers just don't see the benefits of performance pay, and it may not be worth the investment for them.
