Do you think companies should be more open about salaries? Would it level the playing field or just create tension?

Yes, I believe companies should be more open about salaries. Here are some reasons and potential impacts:

Why Companies Should Be Open About Salaries:
Transparency:

Equity and Fairness: Open salary information helps ensure that employees are paid fairly for their work, regardless of gender, race, or other factors. This can help to identify and eliminate wage gaps.
Trust and Morale: Transparency builds trust between employees and management. When employees know they are being compensated fairly, it can lead to increased job satisfaction and loyalty.

Not sure. We can ask where we are in the pay band we are in as well as our comp ratio. If under 1 you are below the median. If over then above. I know one staff member who knows how much less he is compared to another. It’s made him a total dick about it even though he is really difficult to work with, never compromises, isn’t as strong as the other person, etc.

Another staff member complains about their $200K+ salary and always wanting a bigger increase. This person is the highest paid person on the entire team and that includes myself. I don’t think they are aware that they make more than their boss.

I got a remote L6 SWE offer at Google but the RSUs are too low for that level ($625k over 4 years), could not negotiate it higher. I’ve accepted the offer but trying to be hopeful that I could make it more equitable in the future if I perform well. Are stock refreshers based on the initial RSU grant or solely based on performance? Google

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level.

If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...

I recommended a candidate for hire to a manager that reports directly to me. This person is a perfect match, but wanted the manager to obviously recommend. It has to be a fit. The manager just told me my recommendation is not her top pick. I feel frustrated because as much as we talk about the position, I wonder if we are mot aligned on criteria. What do I do? Do I push more for the person I want or will I cause an issue with the hiring manager? How do I get her to see this person’s value?
