Periodic Reminder That Companies Sell Your Salary Data and it Hurts Your Negotiating Power

I just did a check of TheWorkNumber. It doesn’t list everywhere i worked, but it has four places i worked. Background checks pull it. In fact i can see when and who pulled a background check on it in the past 24 months. It also has my salary information for these jobs, so when a company does a background check they can see how much you make, unless you freeze it.
