Salary Transparency

Postby Fergal » 28 Oct 2022, 05:48

I don't think I would be comfortable putting my salary online for public view. However, some people are very happy to do that in the interest of transparency. Have a look at this page https://xeiaso.net/salary-transparency

This guy is happy to share his salary details. His salary is very high, certainly by Irish standards (or at least my standards :) ) It is interesting that he was "terminated" or had "contract not renewed" at a number of positions, but still maintains a high salary.

That (147150/ year) is high for my standards too and it is weird that he maintains the high salary despite his contract being terminated or not renewed. I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing those sort of information online.

Wow, the guy either got demoted or fired a lot of times! But it certainly doesn't seem to hurt his job prospects. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable sharing that type of information. This is something my husband and I disagree on. He doesn't see anything wrong with telling all and sundry about the size of our bak account :roll: :lol:

Do you actually share it online? If so where?

I found it interesting that the guy looked like a flake. Often earning six figures but seldom staying very long.

I could not post my salary because I seldom had one, since I owned the company and usually paid what I could afford at the time.

Do you know where he lives? I think when you see somebody salary you must compare it with live expenses in area where worker live.

With this salarys he would be king in Croatia. With my salary I could not cover expenses in Norway and probably Sweden. In Croatia, as single, I can afford most things.

I always lied my salary. Never ever reveal the truth to anyone even your best buddy

Based on the LinkedIn profile it seems to be in Ontario Canada. I know I described him as male in my first post, however, now I am not so sure if this person is male or female.

When you like about it, do you claim to be earning less or more than you actually are?

I honestly do not like because it is a private thing. I usually do not reveal it offline. For online, I think it is fine because people close to me are not into earning sites virtually.

I don't mind revealing my salary to my friends in casual conversations. Not to brag (and it's not an amount high enough to be bragging about :lol:), but it's an interesting topic. In the USA, you and a friend could be working two similiar jobs and be paid differently based on the company. When I share my salary with my friends, sometimes they'll share theirs and even ask me if I can refer them to my company because it's higher paying for the same work. It provides additional work opportunities that would otherwise go unnoticed.

I probably wouldn't share my salary online tough. Especially not if I'm using my real name.

I have never revealed my salary neither online or offline - except may be to my husband.

I told few times people how much my salary is. But in that case I see how basic salary is. I have some extras but those depend from month to month so I don't calculate those. Also I don't include travel expenses since I spend it on travel.
