Why are companies only required to post to the top 3rd in the salary range?

I thought with the salary transparency laws the full comp range needs to be posted?

This was a hot topic on LinkedIn and I was wondering if anyone knew if it had to do with specific guidelines within the salary transparency law. Otherwise, this wouldn’t be fully transparent.

It probably depends on where a company is located and where they are posting the job. Salary transparency laws are state and city laws and I assume there's some variation in them. Generally speaking, companies will post a range just to comply with the law, but the ranges are so broad they don't really tell a job seeker very much.

That’s a great point. Especially with most employees living in the city the company is headquartered in prior to Covid. Now, everyone is everywhere and salaries have multiple geographic structures but we don’t always know if salary ranges reflect the entire US or one area.

Hi All,
Apart from the pandemic year, how's hike and bonus in EY GDS in general?

I've heard that last year was rough but in general its good. Is that true?

I'm joining next month. Can i expect an annual hike of 10℅+ and bonus > 10℅ (which is target VP at my rank, 42) going forward?? Or is this unrealistic?

I know that it comes down to individual performance and other business factors. But still, could you all pls advise me so that i can know what to expect.

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
