I want transparency to be the option to vote for, but I'm really undecided.
The explanation could be:
- you are trainee/junior not senior
- you demanded too less
- the labor market makes your position easier/cheaper to replace
- the company acquired big funding only after you joined
All is 100% independent from the amount of value you generate and work you do.
I once was told that the young designer on the team basically makes minimum wage and they therefore could not pay me what I demanded for becoming the CTO (One of a couple of things that made me reject the offer).
I'd probably feel bad for the young people in my team, if I knew what they are paid. I already feel bad when the team orders more expensive food and everybody joins.
The alternative would be raising or even loans, I don't know if the company could survive than.
On the other hand, a fair step-ladder to higher paid jobs within the company might be a nice incentive.
