Pay Equity

I’m 100% in favor of pay equity laws. When they work! Got hired in a gov role, landed a good salary, but still tried to negotiate. I was told it was not negotiable as my 10+ years of relevant work and management experience had gone through a central pay equity review. Cool, so be it. Hired 3 people in my first year – all 3 junior staff w/o supervisory duties. All 3 have less than 5yrs of relevant experience. All 3 job offers that HR spit out of the pay equity blackbox were for more money than I make currently! No one at HR can explain how the pay equity analysis works, and they won’t run my resume through it again…🤦‍️ At least my staff got the bag though
