    It’s important for employees to openly talk about their salary; it gives newcomers more negotiating leverage. Companies are mad because they don’t want their employees to have this kind of knowledge

      it's not just about being open to salary. the candidate's interview's success determines their level, base, equity, stock, RSU's. Each level has a range of a salary and the equity, stock, RSU's come after. There can be a couple candidates who are qualified at this level but on different terms of everything mentioned. It isn't a simple job where the base can be on the same average out all the way. "There's level to it". Companies negotiate salary by negotiating how well Candidates do on the interview. Candidates who are unable to answer the questions during the multiple interview process will be leveled lower than another candidate who can. If they have that knowledge beforehand, it won't allow for the candidate to sell themselves.

      @@namsj it really is about being open to salary.. if you don't know the value of a dollar you won't go far. Here in the US it's all about money, but go further into our history it wasn't all based on what you call "stock" and RSUs... If you continue to opporate in America with this type of mentality... Just know this is God's land and uhmm you'll be in for a rude awakening. So go on and try to look deeper into it the rabbit hole "man with the top hat" instead of educating others, encouraging them to test the system and to enlighten our country. We open our country for you guys to help us, but if you're eating from the hand thats feeding you but is jacking you off and others off.. then umm "cough cough" biiihhhh

    If a company has nothing to hide, they wouldn’t stop their employees from sharing their salary. I’ve worked for a place where the owner would tell people not to tell others what our salary of because everyone started off differently even though he claims people started with the same salary. So he’s pay guys with less experience, more and with girl with more experience, less.
    Maybe the company was actually underpaying as a female and they got nervous when they saw her sharing those numbers and thought eventually, someone will tell her some guy with less experience made more than her for starting salary.

    Lot of ignorant people here. You cannot forbid employees from discussing salary at work. It is protected regardless of whether employees are talking to each other in person or through social media. Protected by the NRLA. There's also a low of at will states so companies can fire anyone for various other reasons that they can make up out of thin air. If she can prove she was fired for sharing her salary, then she can sue.

    The point of her video and her other ones was career and salary advisement. By sharing her salary and what kind of jobs she does and how she got them, whether or not she needed some degree or certification, she giving people ideas on how to put themselves in positions for better careers, pay, and life in general. She’s not the first to do this, and certainly won’t be the last. Plenty of people try to help each other out professionally in similar ways on social media. There’s whole twitter groups/networks that tweet about tech jobs, certs, education, and pay/salary to help others achieve better financial standing in life. Employers don’t like that because it’s the transparency they do not like as it forces them to be more competitive with pay and exposes pay gaps.

    It's dumb to fire someone for sharing their salary online, but it's pretty damn cringy to make a *tiktok* showing off how much you make. Because, let's be honest, sharing that online instead of keeping it between family and friends, which in itself is already strange in certain cases, is nothing but showing off. And people usually *don't want to be robbed if the wrong person knows about it.* Not everything has to be public online. Go ahead, post it, but it's freaking weird. Especially to those around you. I know because I personally know someone who does that.

      At will employment means you can get fired for legal reasons, if it is not legal you can get compensation and its ultimately up to a judge to decide if a person was fired illegally or not. An example is if a good worker becomes pregnant or gets a disability, starts getting a lot of writeups a week after and fired 2 weeks after.
