Wow, I would really like to see my American coworkers' starting salaries the same way they are able to look mine up in this table :)

Don't think that would ever happen though, it would be labeled as a shocking breach of privacy.

You can look any most US citizens' salary if they work for a gov't agency.

I know that.

But I work for a private company, and I would bet the majority of HN readers do too. Imagine if your starting salary was known to your coworkers on the day you started, but not vice versa.
