I suppose it could work if the employee gets time as their raise rather than a salary bump. Otherwise the business is increasing cashflow while getting less time out of the employee.
The cost benefit for the employer and employee is non-linear, so I think we need a better way to look at employment than either the hourly or salaried methods. Something that incentivizes 30 hour work weeks (assuming 30 hours is somehow an optimal compromise for both employer and employee).
