Hello seniors,
Is it a healthy practice to give a conditional salary raise to an employee who is looking for an increment? For example, if an employee asks for a specific raise in salary that the management feels is an undue demand. But in the fear of losing a candidate, the management proposes to raise the salary with a commitment of sticking to the organization for the next 6 months. In case the person fails to do so for any reason, similar value deductions will be made from the final settlement.
Personally, I feel that by doing this, we're committing to his future and needs through an increase. This is a way for him to step up to match that commitment on some level, although it doesn't guarantee anything. Seeking seniors' advice to ensure a justified step is taken.
Thanks in advance for your valuable time.
