Compensation 10th Edition By Milkovich Newman And Gerhart Pdf
Seems like a pretty decent text book. It not exceptionally good nor is very bad either. Is an okay read
The book arrived ahead of schedule. I do not like the class, but the book did a great job of explaining the material.
Although the book is called compensation I am not recieving any for writing this review. I bought this for a class I was taking related to HR. Amazon used books is the way to go when comparing prices to your local university book store. I got an A in the class.
This book has a ton of examples and real-life scenarios. While those are great, sometimes I had to search for the subject matter between all of the examples. The book is easy to read, but not so friendly when it comes to studying or researching.
The subject index was poorly done and confusing. Hope I never have to use this book again and will be happy when this class is over!
Loved the textbook. Very comprehensive about compensation and a lot of cases and examples. Bought a used one but it is as good as a brand new textbook!!
Purchased the book for school. It arrived on time and in perfect condition! I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about Compensation. A great read. Thanks.
I was very glad when this book arrived it was new as I ordered it and looked great the pages and cover were excellent and it came just in time for my class.
Looked great and was here when I needed it. The pages inside the book were clear without much highlighting. THanks
The authors appears to think they are presenting the material in a light/almost humorous fashion. They fall far short and should have used a more straight-forward textbook style. The presentation comes across as dry and is difficult to absorb.
I had to purchase this book for my Compensation class this Fall. It's very annoying because there are a LOT of redundant and unnecessary information in here. However, my teacher said that there is really no perfect book for Compensation. However, she said this book is more geared towards graduate students because it has research data that would be extremely useful. SO, I purchased it in hopes of using it after I graduate. Overall great buy.
I have an older version of this book and wanted an updated version -- its great for those who are compensation practitioners. Also - the seller sent a great, clean copy. THANK YOU!
This book is blah. Barely any graphics, charts, or pictures to spice things up, and it is black and white which you don't realize how boring a text book can be until they take the color out. Also, the authors try to make weird jokes through out the book that really detract from the point they are trying to teach. Example: Page 306, 'The oil that lubricates the compensation engine (email the authors if you agree this is a horrible metaphor!) is performance measurement and performance management.' What....Why would they say that? If its a horrible metaphor why publish it?! Example: page 306 again: 'Who buys an explorer that gets 17 mpg when gas now costs over $4/gallon? (except of course a dumb second author! By the way, it's a really pretty red!) HR can't control these types of environmental obstacles, after all.' .....did they just refer to one of the authors as dumb? why? THIS is what I mean. Its through out the whole book. Example stories not very good. If you are a teacher, I would look for another book.
The highlighted sections are extremely difficult to read because of the background color. Most of the grey background has valuable definitions; however, the print is slightly a darker grey that blends into the background. Maybe the printer would consider modifying this design in future publications so that the readers do not have this type of barrier.
I didn't find the text to add anything new to the overall body of knowledge on compensation. It was a retelling of the same thing found in others. In my case this was for a graduate course but I it felt more HR 101 as it was very basic. If you are teaching a course I would suggest something more in depth.
This book was selected by my university: Webster (out of St. Louis, Missouri) for my online course. I have used other textbooks for other classes and though, good, there were not as well written as this one. The authors did a great job with this book. It feels more like a conversation with them than a typical textbook. This style and accuracy of the content make an otherwise trying subject very interesting, pleasant and inviting. Additionally, it provides great reference points that stimulate the reader's curiosity--in this case me. Great job! You have my permission to quote me.

The material covered in this book was not really explained/discussed in an easy manner. The material was very dry and it was hard to find terms. In addition, the printing was super small and it just made it hard to stay focused.
This was a required text for my Total Rewards class. Sadly, I ended up using search engines, and HR websites to help with learning the direct explanations of each chapter assigned (basically the whole book). At no point in the 8-week course was I able to use the book as a reference. It was much easier to be where internet service was and go web-surfing. With the internet and my own common sense/logical conclusions, the assignments were completed. The only time I used any part of the book was to give a 'gimme' and reference it in my papers.
It reads like a drunk's chatter. Vocabulary words (found in the glossary) are sometimes not in bold face or italicized. It is difficult to tell if a particular word is a vocabulary word or not, because the word will not be clearly defined in the text (no indication basically). Furthermore, it will be a familiar word like 'professional,' so one wouldn't think it would be a vocabulary word. A word will be introduced, not clearly defined, and much later be defined a little better making it difficult to write notes in an effective and efficient manner. Sentences will not be clearly stated. Paragraphs and the chapters in general are unfocused. I have a hard time believing any of the authors ever took an English class or that this book had any editors. This book is a joke. How can I focus on the content, and become a compensation analyst when my textbook is so poorly written.
If you like visual examples this text is for you. My only criticism is the math equations could have been explained better for those of us who are not mathematically inclined. I enjoyed the case studies, those were excellent.
This has to be the most driest, boring book I have ever read. It takes a very simple subject and overly complicates it by going into thorough, thorough detail. I had to rent this book to meet a class requirement, but if I actually bought it to learn more about strategic compensation, I would be more let down than I already am. This book has caused me to start smoking again, because it is so ridiculously bad.
Best book in CEBS by far. The authors are human and the material isn't just spouting numbers at you like a mean IRS auditor. I understood this the most and passed the exam. Save this book for last or 2nd to last because the rest are kinda torture.... Of course they're getting a higher review because the other books are so dry but I think it was a good book that tells a story to get its point across rather than inundates you with facts.
Content of book helpful but outside of book looked well used.
