I work with people who openly discuss salaries and others who treat it like classified information. Do salary discussions help employees or just create tension? I genuinely cannot tell.

There are some who incorrectly believe that it's illegal to discuss salary in the workplace with coworkers. I do think there are protections against insisting on that information from others, but I like to share my pay information as freely as I can within the companies I've worked at. It has not always been received well, but I will continue to do it because we need more transparency in general.

The industry has slowed where I live. Our bonus structure was cut in half at the start of the year.

Has this happened to anyone else? My bonus used to be almost a 3rd of my income, now it’s negligible. I’m hoping to work remote full time, but we are being pushed back to the office.
