> Mondragon provides us with a successful, working model. It’s not throwing out capitalism, it’s creating a better form of it.
Can any people from this region tell us what the downsides of working for Mondragon are? The article only touched on lower pay.
Also how much does the President of the parent Mondragon Corp get paid? The often cited 6:1 or 9:1 lowest paid worker to CEO seems to be applied to CEOs of the various corporations not the president of the parent company.
In the OP:
“Lorenzo estimates that the president of Mondragon is the highest-paid position (level 6) with a salary of around €200,000. Managers and directors earn between €80,000 and €120,000.”
So the president makes less than a middle manager in a Fortune 500 company. I hope there are some other benefits…
The article talks about this extensively; both the benefits, and the difficulty hiring American workers because of our (I'm assuming "our", but I suppose I don't know, there are plenty of other countries with similar cultural norms) more individual, selfish, culture.
