Performance evaluation

Success of complex projects depends more on effective teams than rockstar programmers. Therefore, performance evaluation should focus more on the team than the individual. An individual's ability to make his teammates better is the highest achievement, his individual contribution is less important. If he does not fit into the team, he should leave. This implies that team members of similar rank should have similar pay. Pay and raise criteria should be made public. This results in less gossip.
