Hopefully it starts a snowball. Plus, as a non-Coloradoan, it gives me a quick canary. If the remote job list "no Colorado applicants", I know to ignore it.

  I’m curious why you think revealing all employee salaries and benefits publicly makes a company a better place to work at.

    As I understand it, the disclosure is actually just for new job _postings_ ? I'm sure sites could collect that data and make estimations, but I'm not opposed to that either. Really anything that helps with the SNR when looking through job postings is a welcomed change in my book.

    Having worked at a fully salary-transparent company: it is one less aspect about employment that can be gamified by employers. You know if your title is the same as someone, their pay matches. You also know how much senior executives are making and can judge for yourself if they are justifying their value. Often, at nontransparent companies, employers will play games with salaries, but this only works if employees pretend there is some shame to sharing salaries, or if employees convince themselves they are justifiably making more than their colleagues. Having worked at both I definitely prefer transparent salaries. Hiding them mostly only benefits employers
