Just found out someone in the same role at my company is making $15k more than me. Same title, same responsibilities. I’m trying not to take it personally, but… I do. Would you bring it up or use it as fuel to start looking elsewhere?

That is ridiculous! How can this even be possible! Did you hear this from the person or through the grapevine? I would definitely talk to one of the managers about it- maybe one that you have the best relationship with!

Definitely make a scene. We need to normalise talking more about your pay with your coworkers, the taboo keeps companies on top by keeping everyone in the dark.
