In 2025, we should NOT be guessing what a job pays. If a company is transparent and posts a salary range up front, that’s a green flag 🚦 because it shows respect for your time, and your life outside of work.

If the posting doesn’t list a range, don’t be afraid to take charge of your interview and ASK:
• “Can you share the salary range for this role?”
• “How is compensation structured for this position?”

You are not being difficult. You are being professional and intentional. Thoughts?

I absolutely agree. The fact that we still obfuscate and play coy with the salary is ridiculous. And then sometimes they act offended if you ask, as if it isn't your livelihood on the line! I have no respect for companies that play these kinds of games.

Me neither! I would expect companies to have raised the bar in 2025. This really has no place in the workplace

I'm with you 100%. There is no reason to play this cat and mouse game when it comes to salary. It's going to come out eventually, and it's not like I'm going to accept a lowball offer just because I've already sunk time into multiple rounds of interviews. Having that discussion early saves everyone time.

Agreed! Would rather not waste peoples time and just be upfront about the entire process
