I share with anyone who asks.
There’s a good 15 of us that share with each other. It’s important to compare with your peers instead of just relying on online info.

I’m absolutely open about it. The only reason they try to keep us from discussing it is to save money, because there are people too shy to ask for what they’re worth.

Don’t forget it’s your federal right to discuss your comp with your peers. I’ve had leadership skirt around that by mentioning it would “hurt feelings” from you and others if you spoke about comp. Forget that noise - I’m trying to make a car payment while they fund their second beach house.

I am an open book with things like that. If it comes up I have no problem sharing.

Mid level Electrical Engineer in the greater Baltimore, MD area making $115k base w/ $20k sign on bonus. No yearly bonus. I started this job in April of this year. 2-3 years experience.

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

I have a counter offer with more package than the Microsoft. Do they have a policy of blacklist the candidate if I change my mind after accepting the offer?
