Answer to Question #202208 in Management for Noreen

Question

Would you rather work for an organization where everyone knows what others are earning or an organization where this information is kept secret? Why? Would it make a difference if you suspected that you were making more than coworkers with similar positions? Explain your answers. 

Answer 1

I'd rather work for an organization where there is transparency on all earnings of the formal employees. Transparency is a great motivation cultivator that results in more job satisfaction. It also breaks the boundary between management and employees as well as eliminating aspects such as workplace discrimination.
