To your second point: I read claims like

   Employees, Bersin explains, are appreciating assets that produce more and 
   more value to the organization over time, which helps explain why losing 
   them is so costly.

And yet in a ten year career in the valley, I've really only gotten significant raises when changing companies. I've had lots of bosses try to talk me out of quitting, but none with at least $15k attached to that request.

I think when you see the entire world ignoring your wisdom, you probably need to question the wisdom.

I don't see any reason why the world can't be wrong. Especially when what you mean by "the world" is really management in tech companies.

This is a great point. I've seen companies that are great and companies that are horrible about substantially increasing the compensation of their top performers. It makes a huge difference and should be an easy decision to make if companies take the time to think about it.
