11 companies with 40+ open roles publish a salary on none of them
11 companies with 40+ open roles publish a salary on none of them I measured pay transparency the way it is usually measured wrong. Most "salary transparency" numbers you see are computed over postings that have a salary. That tells you nothing about how often companies disclose, because the ones that disclose nothing never enter the sample. So I built the denominator first: read every posting…
An analysis of pay transparency across 266 companies found that only 11 of them with 40 or more open roles disclosed salary information. The study, which read every posting from the public job feeds of these companies, revealed that many companies publish pay ranges despite having numerous open positions. For instance, Sentry, Rain, Algolia, Klaviyo, Ramp, and Plaid were among the companies with 100% pay transparency.
In contrast, Supabase, Nubank, Sumup, ElevenLabs, and GoPuff had no pay ranges disclosed across their 40+ open roles. The study emphasizes the importance of using a proper denominator when evaluating pay transparency, as using only postings with salary information can lead to misleading conclusions. The dataset is available for free and CC BY 4.0, allowing others to verify and build upon the research.
