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
