#talkpay

On May 1st, the international day of workers, Lauren Voswinkel a senior software developer who lives in Pittsburgh, is urging people to share their job title and salary on Twitter using the hashtag #talkpay. Breaking down the social taboo around people’s pay could help bridge the gender pay gap as well as give workers realistic expectations about salaries in their field. Cool initiative.
