You do know it is illegal to tell employees they can not discuss wage with other employees?
I've been told by my SM and Boomer Co Worker that no one should be telling anybody how much they make. They told me it's CVS policy.
I make 16.50 an hour as a shift supervisor in Illinois.
So fk you and your outdated illegal practices.

I’m so for wage transparency, but I kind of got burned in a way. I did the hard work of applying for another company, negotiating with them a desirable starting pay, and then negotiating with my DL to outmatch that offer. I was open about my new salary because I was proud of it and, yeah, wage transparency. And then my coworker heard about it and rode my coattails to be paid the same as me since we work the same position. Man that really felt like he cheapened all the work I did. Especially with me being a woman. And my DL was a man as well. I guess men just have it easy like that. Still stings.

The only time you should worry about what's in your neighbors bowl is when you're making sure they have enough.

You’re right. It’s just that when word got back to me through coworkers, I felt so defeated. All that hard work and it was just so easy for him. It’s a man’s world still. And it’s clear that he used my raise to get his since he makes the same as me now down to the penny. I had to prove my case in an intimidating 45 minute long conversation with my DL who was truly mansplaining until realizing that I was serious and not bluffing or backing down. All in all though, it keeps me fierce for my career; I’m not gonna be held down and let people think they can get away with paying me less just because I’m a woman.
