Well at home depot it's against company policy to discuss pay with coworkers, HR confirmed it and my supervisor told me first I'm not allowed to talk about pay but didn't tell me it was against policy until I asked.

You tell me, all I know is that when I called and asked HR about it, they said it's against company policy to talk about your pay with coworkers. And I was also told I could get written up for it. I don't care enough to look into all of it.

Idk why people lie about it. I've never been in a position like yours, but I have been the underling and like why lie? If anything we'd all be on the same team if our wages are to low. We're all working a low level position don't lie just to feel like you're more important. Work for it if you wanted to be in a leadership position.
by Both_Telephone1 year ago
I had always prided myself on being open about salary and found myself lying once. Me and two of the other managers were discussing salary. One manager has always been a totally inept slacker. I used to be pissed because he'd get bonuses for wooing customers, even though I would constantly have to follow up behind him cleaning up his messes. When he said his salary and I found out it was a good 20K less than mine I realized that while he'd been getting the bonuses, I had been getting the big raises. It was wrong of me but I didn't want to give him any ammunition to demand a bigger salary so lied and said we were making about the same.

Learning about my coworkers' salaries has gotten me massive raises twice in my career. I wasn't a douchecanoe about it. I learned what my coworker's salary was. I said, "thank you for sharing that with me," and shared mine. I went to management, pointing to very clear ways my performance warranted a higher salary and asked for more money. They gave me a raise. Some people are idiots. Some people are exploited by corporations.
by Rmcglynn1 year ago
You act like people will react reasonably and rationally to hear that they're not paid as much as other people, usually for good reason.
by Anonymous1 year ago
As someone who works in HR, THIS. I'm definitely not against salary transparency, but that also requires individuals to be honest with themselves regarding their roles and performance. Recognizing that some employees were able to negotiate an increased salary, and yes, there are legacy employees who make more because they were with the company since near the beginning. As someone who knows exactly how much everyone makes in the company, I myself have to regulate salary envy.
by hilperttad1 year ago
Here's the thing, people LIE about their salary to coworkers. Some dummy tried to sue our company saying women got paid less than men. It was based on what 3 people told her they made. 2 of them lied. And when we ran the data, women actually got paid MORE than men by like $0.14 per hour or something like that. That was the quickest deposition ever.
by Bhermiston1 year ago
As a management consultant who sees how complex organizations react to all kinds of challenges, I bet salary transparency results in fewer raises, because management now says "but Dave, if I give you a raise I'll have to give in to Bob too".
by furmanbeatty1 year ago
Then the organization is poorly managed. It sounds like this manager does not have a good reason to give Dave a raise. If so, they'd feel comfortable giving Dave a raise and explaining to Bob why he didn't get a raise and how he can improve his performance.

by hilperttad1 year ago
When I get paid less to do more work than someone who does part of my job and has been working for 2+ years less than me, how would you handle being told that there is only so much in the budget for raises and the company cannot compensate me accordingly? Oh, I should add that I work for a worldwide medical equipment provider. They have the money to fairly pay me what I am worth. I'm also one of the hardest working people on my team, as told to me by others on it. I was never supposed to know that people getting hired on after me were making at least $2 more an hour than me doing half of what I do daily lol.
by Any-Necessary1 year ago
If they refuse to give you a raise, then that's your answer. If you aren't being paid your worth, find a company who will. Employers will find a way to compensate their valued employees. In some instances, employees have found the comp they were looking for elsewhere. In other instances, they realized they were the problem.
by hilperttad1 year ago
I'm trying to find a different job, but I'm not the best at it and haven't even tried in 5+ years lol. Pay rates were basically the straw that broke the camel's back for me.
by Any-Necessary1 year ago
Your pay is not based on what you provide the company, compared to you peers, or even what it would cost to replace you. Your pay is based on what the marketplace would pay for you, and if you can not effectively move to another job then your company does not need to consider paying you more.

by New_Meal1 year ago
you can't sit down and go over why another person makes more Sure you can't talk about the other employee, but you can totally talk to that employee about why they make what they do. A well-managed organization will have some system around their titles, levels, and pay ranges, and those can be explained to employees. If you can't explain to an employee why their salary is what it is, your organization is poorly managed.
by Rmcglynn1 year ago
Part of the issue is that we are worth what we negotiate. Back when I was in management some of our best employees went underpaid simply because they didn't ask for more money. Meanwhile we had some that were just so so who had no problem demanding a raise and often getting them simply because it would take so long to train a replacement. I learned it myself as I received three sizeable raises due to me making a fuss which lead to me making a lot more than some of my coworkers who had been at the company a similar amount of time.

I'm currently taking a Master's Degree. However, when I was tossing up between that and going into the workforce after my bachelors I was offered a position for: $63,000.00 3% matched contribution to retirement account 5% matched contribution to student loan repayments (I would have to pay 12.8% in my Country anyway) So a total renumeration in the value of $68,040 .00

$42.26hr + about $5hr towards my pension and another $6 towards my health insurance

My pay has always been public (Air Force) or very easy to find (Airlines). Currently at ~$180/hr, working about 80-90 hours per month, with ~16-18% automatic (not matching) company contribution to my 401(k). Should be about $200k +/- $10k gross for 2024 (not including the company contribution to my 401(k)).

by Anonymous1 year ago
I'm all about discussing salaries and I was very open about how much I make at work with anyone who asked. My position was unique and pay was pretty standard across the company for those in a similar roll. So no issues. I had a good friend who told someone on his team he made a few thousand more than him despite being there a few months less. He went nuclear. He started blowing up his manager that very moment after work hours at like 9pm about how it wasn't fair and typing up emails to HR. Eventually said some stuff that crossed a line and got himself fired. Some people cannot handle that conversation maturely.
by No-Wallaby1 year ago
I don't have much of a problem with this. Management will just need to have concrete reasons why someone is paid more or less in case a lower paid employee complains about not being paid as much as a coworker with the same title
by Anonymous1 year ago
There was a study a while ago were scientists were asked to evaluate a set of CVs and what they should get paid. The only differences was the name being male or female. What they found was that females based only on their names were underpaid compared to the male CVs. The interesting part was that this trend also held true when female scientists were asked to evaluate the CVs. What this suggests is that there are unconscious bias that contribute to any hiring process causing unfair renumeration conditions. Talking about salaries is the first step in breaking down those boundaries.

by AwayAnalysis1 year ago
Nope. As a higher paid employee I gain nothing from sharing my pay to my coworkers. People are often not reasonable and will assume they should be paid the same or more due to job title or seniority. Pay raises from a corporation are typically limited to X dollars per section. Not everyone gets an equal piece.
by Emerson241 year ago
Oh sorry, I meant the boss and bootlickers like yourself.
by AwayAnalysis1 year ago
Okay, if it's not job title or seniority, why do you get paid more? Is it performance within your particular job title? Does your company have a fair way of measuring performance? If your company is well-managed and manages salaries fairly (i..e not nepotism and favoritism), then it's pretty easy to explain why one person gets paid more than another.
by Rmcglynn1 year ago
Performance. Engineering, relatively small organization with not really a large stratification in job titles/duties. Nearly everyone thinks they outperform their pay, especially low performers.
by Emerson241 year ago
Hell no. That would just lead to a ton of resentment. Unfortunately in this society most people think of financial success as the main indicator of someone's worth/value.

I think OP is saying that overtime it would correct society into more evenly paid jobs = equality. Your right though mass resentment and opposition would happen for awhile. (If not forever)
by Anonymous1 year ago
But jobs shouldn't be paid equally. There are a lot of people who think they are much better at their job than they are
by Anonymous1 year ago
Managers will just need concrete reasons to justify pay. If I lower paid employee gets upset about their pay then management can just point to their lower productivity or poor attendance
by Anonymous1 year ago
If a company can't explain an employee's performance to them, they are poorly managed.
by Rmcglynn1 year ago
This is the real reason. Companies do not want people to talk about what they make because people have different jobs and some people perform better than others. I definitely agree that most people think they deserve more than the effort they put in. While it's not illegal to talk about pay amongst yourselves, it causes a lot of problems for the company if you do. Companies will not want to keep you around if you cause problems for them. I speak as an owner of a company myself.
by Anonymous1 year ago
Oh no, companies will have to pay employees what they're worth… the horror!!
by AnyCheek1 year ago
Yeah, that's kind of the point though. If companies don't care about what's good for their employees, why should their employees care about what's good for the company? They already have every advantage possible. And if you have a union, then they won't be able to fire you and tarnish your reputation. If companies "can't afford" to pay all employees wages that won't cause an uprising when revealed, then they can't afford to run a company. I say this as an employee and a proud member of a union, worker's rights are human rights ✊️
by Anonymous1 year ago
My point is that we pay our employees what they are worth. The problem is that they think they are worth a lot more than what they actually are. Another thing people over look is that the problem is with inflation increasing at a rate that employers can't keep up with. This isn't our fault, so saying we shouldn't have a company is not really accurate. What people don't understand is that while employees have to deal with inflation, so do companies, and at a much bigger scale.
by Anonymous1 year ago
I think I would agree in the short term. But if everything is laid bare then come performance review, especially with the backing of a union. There is much more of a backing to get promotions and ensure pay equity.

by ReasonableTaro1 year ago
I'm in management, and I really don't care if people discuss their salaries. I try to do my best to pay everyone as fairly as possible, but I do have limitations and I can't always pay someone as much as I would like. Sometimes I need to make decisions and decide who the money is best spent on. That being said, there is a difference between employees discussing salary and some asshole being completely unprofessional about it and making their coworkers uncomfortable in the workplace because of it. Having arguments about pay and who should be making more inside the office during work hours isn't acceptable, for example. Yes, I have had situations like that happen in the past…
by Anonymous1 year ago
I mean yes, you would want that if you think you are being paid less. If you happen to have secured a higher pay than your coworkers upon hire, then you would not want to talk about salaries with your coworkers.
by Welchwillard1 year ago
I think as a whole most people get underpaid. If you look at the trend of inflation Vs average salary it's been departing for a while. I think a big part of that has been the dismantling of unions, and philosophy of individualism in combination with "hustle culture".

The belief that taking about salaries will somehow increase them, is a joke. It may create tensions and envy between coworkers. It will also generate lots of hot air.
by Gmclaughlin1 year ago
I was making 75K. About 9 months into my position, I was assigned by my manager to work daily with a coworker who was struggling. 1 month later, I learn he was making 110K. I got a $40,000 raise just because I had the necessary knowledge to advocate for myself. Three years later, I had gotten multiple raises, now I was making $135k. Around performance review season, I asked a coworker if he would be comfortable sharing his salary with me. He was making $150. When I told him I was making $135, he agreed that that was unreasonable--that he considered me a mentor and was very thankful for how much I helped him out at work. My performance review got me $10K. I asked my manager for 10 more, and got it. If salary transparency causes tensions and envy, it's because the salaries cannot be explained by performance. If salaries are fair (i.e. based on performance/titles), and the leveling is fair, your company should be able to explain to each and every employee why their salary is what it is.

And what if everyone is as selfish as you are, and now you think you know your worth but it's actually 8 yr old info, you need a raise, but don't even know it because a bunch of selfish people all think their privacy is more important than fair compensation?
by aftonharvey1 year ago
You share pay anonymously to these companies, not directly to your coworkers which will cause issues in a variable pay occupation.
by Emerson241 year ago
And do you think google just makes up numbers? Or do you think PEOPLE IN YOUR INDUSTRY TELL WHAT THEY MAKE SO YOU CAN DO A FAIR COMPARISON? See how that works? They tell others what they make, and others use that information to demand compensation. You're literally advocating for salary reporting but refusing to do it yourself. You're selfish,
by aftonharvey1 year ago
Exactly so you don't need to discuss with your co workers what they are making. The information you seek is readily available online. If you know this information before you jump into an industry then you are in a better position to negotiate what wages you should be making. If you train as an engineer and you accept a job that pays minimum wage or 20k under what the industry standard is then that's a you problem
by quentincarter1 year ago
Did you know that some companies pay more for the same job title / degree / experience? And by you not discussing this with your coworkers, you might be the lowest compensated one in the room?
by aftonharvey1 year ago
Remember companies have more budget to hire (advertise, train and incentives) than to retain employees. This is why it's no longer such a bad thing to change employers for a better deal.
by Anonymous1 year ago
Yeah that has always seemed strange to me. In general internal promotions would be so much less hassle. The employee already knows the company and internal processes structures. The company already knows this is a good employee who will perform well. Internal promotions also are great because in times of understaffing or high demand times managers know how to perform lower tasks so can step into these rolls temporarily and help out.

I understand why people would want to do this and I'm for it if you think you are being underpaid. Especially if you are a woman in a male dominated industry. Personally when I'm interviewing for a job, I know what wages I'm willing to accept and also what the acceptable wage is in the industry and location I'm going for. What my coworkers are making is irrelevant to me. If I feel I deserve a raise and my company won't give me one when I request then I will look for another job that pays higher.

One of my favorite things about working for the federal government is that the pay scale is publicly available. If you know what job I have and how long I've been there, you. Can make a reasonable estimate of my salary. It's entirely transparent. If I cared to I could go look at the federal GS pay scale and know exactly how much each of my coworkers makes. I feel confident it's reasonably fair within my agency/district. In my particular job, seniority is important to know who is in charge in an emergency in the event management is not available, so we are all aware of each other's seniority and GS level.

I was just talking with a coworker about this only a few days ago. Companies are counting on this secrecy to pay people artificially low wages. Oh what? You think you are paying your employees adequately? No you don't, because if you did, there wouldn't be any need for secrecy. You wouldn't care if your employees openly discussed their salaries. The truth doesn't fear investigation.

I work in HR, and I've explained to managers the taboo surrounding discussions about salary are not as strong as they used to be. Younger workers are more open about talking about their salaries with one another and if there's a big pay disparity they'll find out.

It's all situational and how mature and reasonable the people you discuss with are. My friends are normal reasonable adults and we have mentioned our pay many times and we all make less or more for different roles across different fields. No one gets angry about it and we're all in it together. Work place amongst my peers I keep my circle very very small when it comes to pay talk. Granted I'm im a very basic position while I finish my masters degree, I am paid low compared to my work.

You and every other disgruntled employee already have all the information you need to determine if you are being under or overpaid. Websites like Glassdoor, recruiters, industry organizations: they all have databases filled with the salary ranges of most jobs. You can get the information you need there without asking me what I make, and potentially worsening our relationship and the workplace. There are so many variables that go into employee compensation. It's not just a matter of same pay for the same job. We do need stronger unions. This is their point for existing: so that you don't have to go around asking your employees what they make, and then negotiating based on their feedback. Avoid all the social calamity.
