In the extreme you have Merrill Lynch's policy that they just announced. Anyone who wants to quit over the next two weeks will get paid more than a year's salary plus a percentage of Y2K bonus. If you don't quit over the next two weeks, management is saying that you're fair game to be fired if enough people don't quit.

Hi John, re: "revenue per employee and profit dollars per employee. Intel has traditionally been slow to react to a down cycle on that measure." What is a good revenue/employee number? What about profit/employee? And revenue/salesperson? RE: "Productivity seems to have fallen out of favor as a valuation measure" You mean revenue/employee metric or net profit/employee? Any other key metrics? I have 42 financial ratios in a spreadsheet that I sometimes use when I analyze an investment, but some are more important than others. Which financial ratios do you feel are the most important? Regards, Amy J
