    In the US, discussing salary with coworkers is protected speech. It helps people find out if they are being underpaid or unfairly discriminated against. I always share my salary information when asked and I think it’s important to do so.

    My salary is not indicative of my net worth. I could have a 7 figure salary and be drowning in debt, or make 75K and be doing fairly well because of responsible choices.

    I dislike the stigma of discussing salaries, and believe that it’s propagated by companies to dissuade workers from getting fair salaries.
