@Joybuzzahz How is that a bad thing? You want to remain ignorant and keep working for the desperate managers? I'm honestly baffled by your position.

@darma99 "What a stupid person on this era can not find any information about the proper payment they can get." What "a" stupid person "on this era" thinks that talking to their peers isn't a valid source of information?

@tataatthedisco It's hardly different from people posting on reddit or some other website discussing their salaries. People do do this all the time, especially when it's someone looking to get into tech or whatever industry asking what they can potentially make. "I've worked for 8 years and I make this much..." so on and so forth. The only thing they don't do is name the exact company, typically.

@bobby_hill8357 What was the point of your post? They did exactly what you described in the second sentence.

@iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii2458 The employee would have to pay the legal fees to launch such an investigation. Also, imagine you're a company in the industry that the plaintiff works in. Would you hire someone who would sue you (and has the resources to sue you) because they think you aren't paying someone enough? Blows my mind how many people think it's that simple. I know a guy who worked as a signal analyst for a cable/internet company. He was told in advance he'd be laid off at a specific time with a certain amount of severance pay. Then during the week before his dismissal, they told him he would be getting a fraction of what he was promised. Is it illegal? Sure. But he didn't sue them because as it turns out, he didn't want to throw reams of money into the black hole known as the civil court system, and then not be able to get a job.

@iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii2458 Even assuming you're correct (which I don't) that only solves the cost issue, not the blacklisting issue. Or did you not read my post?

@iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii2458 So you really think you can just anonymously complain to the DOL and they'll audit a whole company for you? Weird that you'd pretend that I'm the one writing a fairy tale here.

@CelticCatholic You mean quit and leave for a better-paying job? Yeah what a travesty, that someone would leave a company because they're underpaid. We should do everything we can to prevent this. How's your stock portfolio champ?

@CelticCatholic The theoretical offended person you're talking about is a liability anyway if they're so arrogant that they believe they should earn more just because someone else at the company earns more, regardless of context. I could care less about some upstart's feelings in comparison to the benefits of transparency.
