Small things like “not speaking about your salary” prohibit you and other people to make informed choices when it comes to their pay, accepting new roles, negotiating, etc.

It only benefits the company.

I truly love Payscale which is a site that takes into account your job title, where your job is located, your level @ the company, who you report to, how many people report to you & your current work performance standing & will let you know how much you should be making

Now with that information, you can go in & negotiate your salary when a company offers you a role. Based off of information & not only speaking to “your skills & resume”.

B/c if you’re an NY based employee there’s a bare minimum salary you should be receiving at any company
