Through Twitter, Evan Doll narrated part of a meeting attended by Steve Jobs, he was asked by one of the Apple employees why software or hardware engineers are not paid with higher salaries than what they receive, and the answer was according to Jobs' character.
More precisely, Steve Jobs told that employee to ask his managers why they think that engineers do not deserve higher salaries than the ones they receive at that moment, in response passing the responsibility for solving the problem to the employee and his boss directly.
At that time, Apple and Google had an unofficial agreement not to steal mutual employees, so all those who felt underappreciated did not really have alternatives to obtain higher salaries and of course Steve Jobs knew about this and took advantage of this situation.
