Can you expand a little on why the result of this made people unhappy? At a guess, something relating to significant differences in salary for similar jobs?
1. Employees paid less than the average
2. Employees paid equal to or more than the average
3. Management.
Reactions are:
1. Unhappy: Being paid less than average
2. Happy: Being paid more than average
3. Unhappy: Half of their employees now know they are being paid less and are unhappy.
Yep that's it. Less then half of the total people involved are made happy by this.
However, one thing management should be more happy about is that usually the highest paid people are the nosiest. With a tool like this perhaps they can shut them up.
