Davash222: So I'm guessing you consider a potential employer foolish for asking what you currently make? Unnecessary pride and secrets have had many people rolling in mediocrity for generations! 1 Like |

Friends and family, no need but some exceptions apply to potential new employer, contracts and so on, even your padi can ask you such a question if he is venturing into the same field and wants to verify that he would get paid what he deserves..... P.S. Hope you won't get upset when you woo a girl and her father asks you what you do for a living and how much you are paid  3 Likes |

Depends. I have had a positive situation where someone in the same company found out about disparity in salaries and that led to salaries being balanced in a positive way. Would I advise you to do this with people not in your company or on your level - No!! Be very careful with that information. |

mysteriousD: Would you keep quiet! Bad HR practice? Una go just dey type rubbish all in the name of yarning, I have probably hired over 30 different team members over the past 4 years and current salary allows us to have a good starting point for negotiations especially for well qualified candidates. We can't offer someone currently making $80,000 a year lesser money for the same job or higher position, it would most certainly be a deal breaker and besides all pay information can be verified easily for those of us overseas, it is only primitive nations like Nigeria where things are hidden or hard to get. 7 Likes |
