WSJ Your Money Briefing · How to Turn Pay-Transparency Revelations Into a Raise · 7 Dec 2022 podcast

I mean, we've also seen younger workers for years now, not just Gen Z, but younger workers kind of talking more openly about their pay. voice-verified

I remember, you know, probably like even like six years ago, eight years ago, voice-verified

Our group at the Journal writing about some smaller companies that were piloting pay transparency. voice-verified

And then we had social media where Gen Zers are sharing their salaries. voice-verified

On TikTok, we had workers, I think especially in the post Me Too era, workers kind of compiling their own work. voice-verified

homegrown pay equity spreadsheets where they would kind of try to get anonymized data from people either in their company or as part of kind of an industry-wide group. voice-verified

I think there's been this push of people saying, we want to make sure we're being paid fairly and we want to know what other people are making. voice-verified

Oh, yeah. voice-verified

It's still completely taboo for a lot of people. voice-verified

I mean, you know, I talked to a person who is younger, who is one of these Gen Zers who put her salary out there on TikTok and now runs this platform called Salary Transparency, where what she does is she does these kind of voice-verified

Man or woman on the street interviews asking people what they do and how much they make. voice-verified

And she said, yeah, some people, they're just confused or they're taken aback. voice-verified

People ask her things like, you know, what are you going to ask for my social security number next? voice-verified

So for sure, this kind of remains a bit of a taboo and touchy subject for many people, even as it's shifting. voice-verified

I mean, there can be ramifications to people who do kind of openly talk about this in the office, especially people who are pointing to other colleagues. voice-verified

They do risk being labeled more difficult or you might look like someone who is plotting. voice-verified

I mean, it depends on the attitude of your bosses and colleagues. voice-verified

And in most situations, it is legal to talk about pay at work. voice-verified

But that doesn't mean that there might not be some backlash against folks who bring this up. voice-verified

I'm glad you asked that, JR, because there are plenty of reasons why someone might make more than someone else. voice-verified
