>And if you require a carrot that takes you from, say, $2M to $2.5M salary, maybe re-consider what motivates you and try to find something more intrinsic to the work & company itself.

Who are you to tell someone their motivations are wrong? I agree with you for myself wholeheartedly but I'm not about to go dictate to people what they should be motivated by. How incredibly arrogant.
