Why transparent salaries make sense  

Following up on my recent post about developing a good culture, I noticed Joel Gascoigne posted a brave article exposing the open salary structure at Buffer.

I felt Joel's article missed out a bit on the "why" side, so I wrote a response article to that on the GrantTree Blog: Why transparent salaries make sense

This was posted to HN, and did reasonably well, until the controversy detector flagged up that there were too many comments (apparently this is a very interesting topic for discussions) and then it sank without a trace, so you might have missed it then.
