The base salary is fair for the role and level
Timelines should be continuously reevaluated for feasibility so that people can deliver quality work without burning out. Everyone is being pushed to hit arbitrary and impossible deadlines with no regard for work-life balance or mental health.
The vast majority of individuals want to do what is right but the organization behavior does not reflect that. Listen to people when they say they are overworked or that a deadline is impossible to meet.
There needs to be open communication about project challenges, both technical and resourcing, with a willingness to shift timelines if needed. Currently all deadlines are strictly enforced even if everyone on the team agrees that they are impossible to meet.
