    How much money has Salary Transparent Street made on TikTok in the last year? Drumroll please... 🥁 From 35.2M qualifying views, we made a little over $24,000! My biggest takeaways for aspiring/current creators: 🫰 On TikTok, your earnings (which are determined by your RPM) are less defined by views and more so by engagement. Focusing on making really good videos that generate likes, comments, shares, and longer watch times will pay you more in the long run than focusing on views. 🫠 Related to views, don't get hung up on the total count — only half of those views will likely qualify, anyway. 🔁 $24K/year isn't enough to quit your day job, but it could be if you crosspost. If you aren't reposting your content on other channels like Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, etc., you're missing out on easy revenue. ❤️🩹 Access to the Rewards Program is largely out of your control. Our channel had been active for over a year and had already passed the 1M follower mark before we were first allowed into the program. On the other hand, I've heard of new creators who have been granted immediate access to the program. There's no transparency around how those decisions are made, and sadly no one you can talk to directly for help (unless you have an agent/management with those connections). That lack of transparency from these platforms (not just TikTok) around payment for creating content that keeps platforms alive is concerning. That's why I think it's important for creators to take the lead and be transparent about our experiences (and earnings) to help guide and support new and aspiring creators. Let me know if you have any questions! 💚

    Padawan girl dad and a master of recruiting top talent in technology 🔸🔹 May the source be with you!

    Approaching Labor Day, do you feel your salary reflects the effort you put into your work? According to LinkedIn’s latest survey, just over four in 10 of us are! Baby Boomers lead the pack, while Gen Z is still waiting for their big break. Millennials and Gen Xers are somewhere in the middle, like me, probably wishing they had invested in Bitcoin. And let’s not forget the gender pay gap – because why have equal pay when we can have equal frustration? I often find myself scrolling through great content from Salary Transparent Street questioning why the comp conversation is such a quasi-taboo yet material aspect of every role. What role do you think transparency plays in pay satisfaction?

    Who’s feeling well paid for their work? Just over four in 10 U.S. employees say they are well compensated for their work, according to LinkedIn’s latest Workforce Confidence survey. Baby boomers (47%) are happier about their pay than most other workers. Over one-third of Gen Z workers say they feel they are paid well (37%), while millennials and Gen Xers are about average when it comes to pay satisfaction (42% and 43%, respectively). This generational divide is unsurprising, given that older employees are more likely than their younger colleagues to hold senior positions accompanied by larger paychecks. The survey also found a disparity between men and women: 47% of men said they feel well compensated at work, compared to just 39% of women. It also indicates pay could be a strong reason to job hunt — workers actively searching for a new gig are much less likely to be happy about their pay (29%) than workers who aren’t job seeking (47%). How important is compensation to overall job satisfaction? What advice would you give colleagues who are looking to earn more money? ✍️: Rachel Cromidas 📊: Allie Lewis, Bud Rashidian, Karen Bills

    How much do Special Agents in the Secret Service make? 🇺🇸 I ask strangers how much they make on my channel Salary Transparent Street to promote pay equity and career education, so this question has been heavy on my noggin! It would be impossible to ask an agent this question in person, and they definitely wouldn’t share it publicly, but thankfully, the U.S. Secret Service (SS) is a federal agency, so all salaries are public record! What *was* frustrating is there was lots of conflicting information across the official SS website, their PDF career pamphlet, and the USAJOBS site where all federal jobs are posted, but I did my best to gather all this information. Here’s what I found: The lowest-level agent is a GL-07 step 1, requiring a bachelor’s degree (with a minimum 3.0 GPA), and the highest-level agent is a GS-13 step 10, requiring a Ph.D. or equivalent experience. 🚨 Side note: these ‘equivalent experience’ qualifications were really confusing and all over the place, and I think they should work on clarifying this. But back to pay! 🤑 An entry-level, GL-07 step 1, starts at around $55,562. - SS website lists pay at: $49,508 - USAJOBS lists pay at: $55,562 - The official SS ‘Careers’ pamphlet lists pay at between: $53,510-$58,933 And the highest-rank Special Agent, a GS-13 step 10, has an earning potential of $117,400. - SS website does not mention GS-13 pay, but says that $117,400 is the pay for a GS-11 - USAJOBS lists pay at: $117,400 - The official SS ‘Careers’ pamphlet lists pay at between $129,472-$142,595 I found these salaries to be underwhelming, but they do offer additional monetary benefits that could compensate (literally) for this. - An additional 25% compensation bonus and locality pay - Up to $60K reimbursed in ‘qualifying’ student loans - Up to $10K per year for ‘qualifying’ tuition assistance In my opinion, this pay still feels low for an objectionably dangerous, high-stakes, and high-stress position, but what do you think? Are Special Agents under-, fairly, or overpaid? Let me know in the comments, and which career you’d like me to cover next! #secretservice #secretservicejob #specialagent #secretservicesalary

    Around this time in 2021, I found out I was underpaid roughly $25,000 as a Senior Data Analyst. I turned this experience with pay inequity into a social media page called Salary Transparent Street, with a mission to help others learn and earn more. 3 years later, I now work for myself, and I make over double the salary I was making then. Moral of the story? 1) Always advocate for yourself, even in the face of adversity. 2) Follow through on your ideas, you never know where they’ll take you. 3) Nothing in life (or your career) is ever ‘the end’. You are the writer of your own story, and you can change the genre, tempo, characters, and mission at any time.

    I was thrilled to interview the General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board, Jennifer Abruzzo today! My goal was to get a clear answer to this question: Can workers *legally* talk about their pay? On my channel Salary Transparent Street, I’ve spoken to hundreds of workers. Through these interviews, I learned that many workers aren’t sure if they can talk about their pay. Shockingly, I even met an HR worker in San Francisco last year who very confidently told me that talking about pay was illegal. 😳 That’s not true. The ability to speak openly about your compensation is a protected right workers have had since 1935 under the National Labor Relations Act. The details can be confusing though, as not all workers are protected (federal employees, railway workers, farmers, independent contractors, to name a few). So I was incredibly grateful to get clear answers from GC Abruzzo, as well as guidance on what to do in difficult scenarios workers might find themselves in while exercising their rights. More to come as we pull together this video for our community! Subscribe to our YouTube channel so you don’t miss it! 👉 https://lnkd.in/eihZMTSe
