No switching off | CEO says he once hiked a worker's pay so he could call him at 1AM

A CEO has revealed he offered an employee a pay rise so he could get away with calling him in the dead of night. 

Business Insider recently reported on the actions of Peter Brown, head of investment management firm Renaissance Technologies, who was speaking on a recent episode of the "Exchanges at Goldman Sachs” podcast.

During the discussion, Brown shed light on a time when he needed an answer from an employee. There was just one problem, it was past midnight and, as a colleague pointed out, the worker didn’t earn nearly enough money to deserve being woken up.

The solution? Offer the worker more money on the spot.
