Would you prefer complete salary transparency for all employees of your company (vs. opacity of today)? Why or why not?

Transparency. That would eliminate the whole suspense factor when negotiating compensation and would eliminate people feeling like they are being compensated what they are worth. Would save time with salary negotiations and declined offers when companies don't offer what someone thought they might get.

That would force these firms to pay equally. Or at least based on performance

Our salaries are transparent and equal at all levels. But we counsel out those that don't perform. Transparency comes with a cost.

Have had the notion in my head ever since hearing that episode years ago, D1. I think transparency would ultimately be better for numerous reasons. But the transition would be painful.

Hey fishes. I have been offered Management Consultant role with CTC break up in terms of JB, RB, fixed and variable. So is the fixed amount my gross salary without any other deduction except TDS, or will the organisation contribution to PF be also deducted from the fixed component? Also, will claimable components like LTA, mobile bill reimbursement etc. be in addition to this fixed component or will they be included in it?

Very very poor hikes, even worse than service companies. For ppl who joined in November or later, , they have defaulted hikes to bare minimum.

Extremely disappointed.
