If it was HR, they should be fired and find a new career. If it was a recruiter they should sever ties with that recruiter.

- hudibras 13y agoI work in HR and it's unimaginable that the person wouldn't be fired. "Do not disclose anybody's salary" is as close to a Prime Directive as it gets in the HR world. Edit: Thought it over for a bit and now I'm suspicious of the original story. "HR told somebody my salary over lunch and I happen to make three times as much as everybody else" seems really fishy...
- drdeadringer 13y ago> "Do not disclose anybody's salary" is as close to a Prime Directive as it gets in the HR world. This has been my understanding as a non-HR person, which contributes toward my personal discomfort over "let's all know everyone's salary by name and number as a matter of course" lines of thinking. Not to say I don't understand where these lines of thinking come from.
