On the topic of paid vacation trips as job incentives, I can see both positive and negative aspects of this idea. As you had said, most people respond more to a cash incentive and a vacation may not be as motivating as you may not want to go where they are sending you. You had also mentioned a good point that they may even claim the vacation worth more than it really is. However, I do see positive aspects to this motivation strategy. For one thing, a paid vacation may seem like a more personal gift rather than just a bonus. I know for me personally, I think it would be awesome to receive a vacation as it may be something I would not do even if I received cash bonus from an incentive. And after returning from vacation, I would probably be thankful to the company and have a more positive outlook of the workplace. This is why I think this may in fact be a good incentive. Another idea I have heard that I think would be affective would be to use premium sports tickets as incentives.
