Braintrust needs to rethink their compensation strategy. “Compensation strategies are used to hire and retain top performer employees, increase the satisfaction level of employees, achieve internal as well as external equity, lessen turnover and boost company loyalty etc.” (Payreview, 2018) Braintrust Toys Company’s strategy or mission, “Out purpose is to expand the minds of children 1 month – 100 years old,” has to develop new ways in order to meet their new objectives in order to safeguard 200 more employees’ jobs. By increasing their innovative strategy towards new technology or products then they would be able to meet their new objectives in line. The first way involves identifying the top important objectives or goals that the organization wants to achieve.
