Got a random email from a supposed Amazon recruiter for a SDE position (which is not at all a fit). The email is amazon.com domain and there are no red flags in the body but it doesn't feel like an Amazon recruiter due to the tacky signature, etc. Has anyone seen this kind of cold-calling from FAANG recruiter?
Looking for some book recommendations :)

Wage transparency helps increases wages for all. We should all be pretty open with sharing this info.
If you work at a large firm you shouldn't even have to ask as there is pretty good salary transparency on Glassdoor, FB, Levels, etc
If you're at a smaller firm generally speaking only ask people you are close with

I have talked about it with colleagues with whom I am friendly, and who I trust.

I’ve found that introducing myself salary-first, then my name typically creates enough social anxiety to conform in my meetings that everyone else follows suit.

Yes

It’s transparent at PwC with our cohort model; everyone at the same level i.e SA1, SA2, M1, M2… and tier city (1-3) get the same base pay. Our bonuses dictate the difference and are based on performance ratings (1-3).
Our salary chart is readily available online.
PwC1 - Are Managing Directors also on the cohort /grid model at PwC?
No
Okay
Are you willing to reciprocate? How will you conduct yourself if you find out they get paid more?
You could always start by saying - “I want to make sure I’m in line here, my salary is xyz how does that compare?”
