"cheaper" brake pads glaze quickly, which in turn glaze the rotors quickly, glazing causes poor friction surfaces......almost a glass finish to the surface of the rotors and brake pads. when the clamping force of the caliper is applied to the pads there is slipping and vibration caused by the glazed surfaces...... i.e.if you run and try to stop on freshly polished hardwood floors with sock feet as apposed to stopping on a carpet, there is a considerable difference. note: your feet may even squeel on the hardwood floor ;)

Why do my brakes squeak everytime and i have new pads and rotors?
Occasionally, new brakes will squeak or squeal for a short time as the pads get "bedded in." But in general, brake pads that are properly installed should not squeak, especially with new rotors installed at the same time. Usually, one of the following components is used to PREVENT squeaky brakes: --brake pads with built-in shims to prevent vibration that causes squeaking. --brake pads with external shims (usually thin sheets of metal) between the pad and the rotor. --lubricant OR adhesive between the brake pads and the caliper to prevent vibration. Auto manufacturers specify what anti-squeak measure(s) should be used for brakes of specific vehicles. If whoever installed your brakes didn't follow the correct recommendation, that could be why they squeak. It's also possible, but less likely, that the wrong pads were used. You should take it back to the shop that did the work and ask them to do it correctly.
