Mind Your Business

Pay secrecy is not a rule. It is a habit, and it is one that costs the people who keep it far more than the people who benefit from it.

What we covered

  • What the law actually protects when employees discuss pay
  • Why the range in the job post is not the range in the budget
  • The first negotiation sets every raise after it, and almost nobody is told that
  • What changes in a workplace the week one person says a number out loud
