When I went from Anesthesia resident to Anesthesia attendning my pay went from $12/hr to $150/hr, that was a sweet raise.

Thats why HR started brainwashing us about not telling each other our payrates. They say its to keep everyone "happy" so that someone who's doing twice the work doesn't flip out that they're paying the water cooler bottle replacement guy twice as much.

That, and they think of it as "stealing" talent from somewhere else, while those who are here are already here.

Huh, I'd never discuss my salary with another employee (other than my wife) regardless of HR's opinion on the matter. I wouldn't want to know if they make more than me, and I wouldn't want them to know if I make more than them. What I make is no one's business but my own.

I agree with your logic though, people who are here are already here... and people are reluctant to leave a secure job for something unknown.

I can respect someone not wanted to know or sharing their own, but a lot of companies have started the policy where you can't tell other people what you make. It doesn't really matter I guess, since most intelligent people can figure out the "range" that they're in.
