Yesterday i made a call to RrHH of my employer and i drop the bomb, end contract and everything was normal, until today another person above of my boss call me to ask why i was leaving the company and request me information about the new job (i dont have any so far) yelling and call me all names on the book, after a few hours another call from main RRHH almost asking about the interaction with the boss, i ended showing the recorded call and looks quite complicated how this will end
https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/09/success/salary-ranges-pay-transparency/index.html “Only about 12% of postings from US online job sites include salary ranges, according to Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter. And that's an increase from 8% in 2019.” “Keeping the number under wraps can also be a negotiation strategy. “The person who says a number first loses,” said Donovan. Publishing salary information also means that competitors and current employees can see what a company is paying. In some cases, current employees may discover that they are underpaid, which could lead them to demand more or find a new job. “That's the scary part, that is why [companies] aren't putting it in writing,” she said.”
No Salary Listed for a Reason
Companies don't/won't list salary for an open position because they don't want existing employees to know what they're willing to pay a new person for the same job. Even small companies with 2-5 people working the same positions will have a wide variety of salaries.
I currently work for a law firm in the UK and like many, this pandemic has opened my eyes to the value of working from home and having a better work/life balance.

Just walked off the job. Didn’t clock out. No good-byes. Never going back. No Fu**s left.
Is this even legal? Reference checks.
All supervisors at my workplace received an email today that stated if we are giving out reference checks or confirmation of employments for workers that we supervise, we MUST forward these requests that we personally receive to our internal HR/HR Manager. What the actual f*? In my honest opinion, if an employee is seeking another job, it should be none of their current employer's business to know what and where they are going. It makes things awkward and most people looking for jobs dont want their current place of employment to know, particularly a toxic one. Is there any breach of privacy laws going on here? The email was quickly “retracted” but it still feels absolutely invasive. If I am job hunting, that is none of my current employer's business to know. The fact that they are demanding this information is a bit much. And god knows what they would…
