- kartan 10y agoAs a manager I can tell you that the first thing that I look at when setting salaries is: What other people will think of this salary if they find out? What will this employee think if she sees other peoples salary? Depending on the culture of the company/country people is more or less willing to share salary information. But there is always people that does that, and it becomes awkward when the manager counted with all salaries being secret. Don't assume salary secrecy, people talks.

- azernik 10y agoAnd those feelings of resentment might deepen when you're a woman, and you realize that the co-workers making those extra $15K/year are all men... This doesn't seem like such a bad outcome.
