The Role of Multi National Companies in Israel pt.3
summary
Multinationals report engineer salaries via data-driven compensation surveys (Mercer/Watson Wyatt) so pay is comparable, and R&D centers provide disciplined training, lab equipment and exposure to global tech while running both radical and incremental projects. General Motors preserves and grows an Israeli auto tech unit after 2009 rather than killing it. IBM-style labs partner with Technion and Ben Gurion’s IP-sharing model gets cited. Policy fixes urged: create a national authority of innovation, avoid heavy new regulation, reverse the education decline in math and change tax/IP rules so royalties stay and regulators enable cloud adoption.
