The only reason is so companies can get the most labor at the cheapest cost. There's no argument against it for employees. Salary transparency benefits everyone.

There are employees who would not want their personal finances revealed to the world. That story is from the UK, so perhaps attitudes are different there. Aside from that, management will traditionally contend that having those figures available can create dissension in the workplace, it will feed resentments, and so on. It's a complicated issue.

There will only be dissension and resentment if salaries do not align to time/skills/effort/etc. If management does have evidence to answer the question “why is Joe paid more than I am?” then maybe he shouldn’t be. It’s not complicated.

I appreciate how this article was written! Like a tense movie! The tips at the end are also really good to think over. Aside from that, whenever you go into the salary negotiations, the well they get paid this so I automatically deserve more, is rarely going to be the best approach. Lay out your case and what you are doing that needs more compensation. And always be ready to shop around outside the company too.

I have an offer for $130k for a senior attorney position in a boutique L&E firm. Also have a recruiter who thinks she can get me into another for $150-170k. Both are more than I’ve ever made (Denver, 17 yrs of experience but completely different practice areas). Any tips for countering the $130k offer for more using the other potential offer while not risking a complete withdrawal of the current offer? I’ve never been in a position to bargain my starting salary so this is all very new to me.

Is it good to get stocks as part of CTC which has 4 years vesting period?

CTC looks high due to this stocks but effectively i would not be getting it for the 4 years. Also the yearly hike includes this stock component.

Really confused if this is a good deal or is it a trap.
