Copyright Post University 2022, All Rights Reserved

Due Date: 11:59 pm EST, Sunday of Unit 3
Points: 100

Overview:

To understand how to design a comprehensive compensation strategy, you will apply
your learning to the selected case study.

Instructions:

Select one company to use throughout the course (the company information document
is attached to the assignment). You will use this company case study to apply your
learnings from the class.

• Record your name, the date, and the company name you have chosen for your
case study on the title page of your paper.

Take time to read and review Chapters 1-4 to answer these questions.

Answer the following questions for the case study you have chosen. Read all aspects of
your case study carefully. Please make sure you address each question thoroughly and
clearly. Each question should be at least 2-3 paragraphs to illustrate your
understanding. Review the grading rubric before writing your paper.

1) Of the three generic business strategies that most organizations follow (cost-
cutter, customer-centric, prospector, innovator, or something else), which
strategy does your case study seem to fit and why? Review the following to help
you; the article in Unit 1 titled The linkages between business strategies, culture,
and compensation using Miles & Snow’s and Hofstede culture framework in
conglomerate firms, Three Compensation Strategies (Exhibit 2.1), and Tailor the
Compensation System to the Strategy (Exhibit 2.3).

2) What compensation objectives can you conclude from your case study (review
Exhibits 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, and 2.3 to help you gather some ideas for your case
study)? List several unique compensation objectives for your case study and
explain why you have inferred your unique objectives.

3) Review Formulating a Total Compensation Strategy (Exhibit 2.6) and Contrasting
Maps of Microsoft and SAS (Exhibit 2.8). Map a total compensation strategy for

Competitiveness and Employee Contributions. Discuss your company’s profile in
these two areas and explain why you have answered in this way.

4) In the case study you have selected, how might the company’s values be
reflected in your compensation system design and why?

5) Review Hierarchical versus Egalitarian Structures (Exhibit 3.6) and Layered
versus Delayered Structures (Exhibit 3.7). What types of internal structures do
you believe would fit best for your case study and why?

Requirements:

• Submit a Word document in APA format (double spaced with references and
APA in text citations).

• Maximum 6 pages in length, excluding the Title and Reference pages.
• At least two resources.

Be sure to read the criteria below by which your work will be evaluated before
