I've been here 6 months and he's been here 1. He has less experience, less schooling, and less qualifications than me. I'm wondering what steps I can take to renegotiate my salary to something closer to what he's making? I'm in Wisconsin and we're an at-will state, so I have to tread lightly or I can lose my job. My other coworkers are in the same situation, making the same as me with a $6k difference. (In addition, my coworker who just got a raise has been here 2 years and still makes $4.5k less than the new hire, with more qualifications). I'm updating my resume tonight and looking into unions in the sector as well as possibly scheduling a walkout, and I have a meeting with HR on Thursday with at least 2 of my coworkers to back me up. Any advice, legal or not, would be much appreciated.

Long story short I have a supervisor who is a registered sex offender and he put his hood and sunglasses on trying to be cool. The crew we're all joking around saying you like so and so (terminator unibomber). This is the moment that I said the most clever thing I could think of “you look your about to be caught by Chris Hanson (how too catch a predator). Everyone in the groups jaws just hit the floor nobody laughed we all just had this cringe moment and went to back to work. 10/10 he's also a fucking prick of a boss!
I got hired at a new job in December, a lot of my job can be done remotely (I sell products that can be written on an appointment basis) but we still have a physical office because there is a walk in clientele. For a large portion of my time here I have worked from home, I had licensing to obtain amongst other things and then I got COVID (and very sick as well as my partner) so I had to quarantine for some time. Anyway, recently I’ve started going into work which is fine, but every time I go in my older coworkers berate me for not being there every day (not my bosses so I could care less). Shit like “oh good job 2 days in a row is quite an accomplishment.” I don’t get mad at them, I genuinely just feel bad for them, these people are…
