Product Description:
COMPENSATION, 8th Edition, by Milkovich and Newman is the market-leading text in this course area. It offers instructor's current research material, in depth discussion of topics, integration of Internet coverage, excellent pedagogy, and a truly engaging writing style. George Milkovich and Jerry Newman are leading authorities in the field of Human Resource Management and Compensation. They consult with leading businesses, have won teaching awards, publish in the leading journals. Milkovich received a career contribution award from WorldatWork (formerly American Compensation Association) in 2000. COMPENSATION, 8th Edition, examines the strategic choices in managing total compensation. The total compensation model introduced in chapter one serves as an integrating framework throughout the book. The authors discuss major compensation issues in the context of current theory, research, and real-business practices. Milkovich and Newman strive to differentiate between beliefs and opinions from facts and scholarly research. They showcase practices that illustrate new developments in compensation practices as well as established approaches to compensation decisions. Time after time, adopters relay stories of students getting job offers based on the knowledge they learned from this book.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "Compensation" provides a good framework
"Compensation" provides clear direction in understanding management and implementation of compensation strategies for Human Resources. It provides a good overview intoducing the reader to terminology and frameworks that assist in designing a plan, compliance with laws and regulations and integrating your plan with the business's goals. It was very helpful in providing a framework to write my papers and complete my MBA.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Uber Xena
This Uber Xena story is full of lively characters that jump right off the page. You won't be able to put this novel down.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I don't normally write reviews
I don't normally write reviews, but this text warrants praise. Not only was it a pleasure to read, but the arguments and background studies substantiating the arguments were well-referenced. The authors have done their homework. I would seriously recommend anyone affiliated with salary and benefits options and proposals to take the time to reacquaint themselves with the text and re-examine company compensation options. To the authors: Thank you for your efforts. Good work.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
This is one of the worst books I have ever bought. I had to buy it for a college course and I am furious that my teacher used this one. It is totally unprofessional and too general. Not only myself but others have complained about the boringness and also but find it completely useless.
It reads like a high school essay project with unnecessary sarcasims, endless repetition and examples that are really very weak and inept in the explanations.
If you are seriously considering pursuing an interest in compensation and benefits, do not use this book.
Teachers: don't put any other students through the aggrivation and insult. We are professionals looking to advance our careers not waste what little time we already don't have.
It infuriates me that I had to pay so much for a book that isn't worth $13.00 never mind $103.00
