I received an accidental mail with all salaries for everyone in the company Employment
Hey, first time posting here. Hope this post will be ok.
This is problematic in regards to personal information discretion, but my issue is:
I realized I'm being significantly underpaid in comparison to others who do the same work as me.
I feel frustrated and upset about that fact. Not sure how to approach from here.
How would you approach the situation?
EDIT 1: Thanks for all the answers. There are many good ones in-between!
There are also a few that clearly want to see the world burn 😅
I had never expected this many replies, so please don't hold it against me for not answering each one of you.
RESULT:
First off. Again, thank you to all of you, who pitched in with your personal experiences, hardships, concerns, and advice. I have read through most of all ~2000 of them 😅
I have chosen to simply delete and bury the faulty email, and I will add a bit about being careful to not forward email-chains in our security newsletter this month instead. This way it will benefit everyone in the company to be wary of forwarding email-chains. The WHOLE chain will be forwarded.
I had a sit-down with the boss-man, and he agreed to give me a raise, and a promotion.
