Any respectable employer/employee relationship transacts on results rather than time anyway. Not sure the analogy is very applicable in that light.

No. This may be common in freelance contracts, but is almost never the case in employment contracts, which specify a time-based compensation (usually either per hour or per month).

I believe parent's point was that if ones management is clueless as to how to measure output and compensation/continued employment is unlinked from same... one is probably working for a bad company.

Yea, I said ‘respectable’.

[KeplerBoy]

That's just not how employment laws are written.

Employment law actually permits per-piece payments too, albeit that type of pay scale is rare.
