They have the right skills, they can fit any position. They know what they are doing and align personal ambition to company's mission. They know the importance of work life balance. Employer, if smart, should do anything and everything to keep them happy. They are the stars.
Middle tier, 70-80%
they are hard working employees. They do their job, take responsibility, work in a team. They make mistakes, they learn from mistakes. Employer would give them normal incremental pay raises.
Bottom tier, 10-20%
they miss deadlines, they do not deliver, they drag everybody down, they mess up the team environment. If they cannot be let go right away, they should be contained, giving them non important tedious work.
