I guess I should have added context that they openly are trying to discourage talking about pay, but only ever verbally said so in the past. My biggest concern is my co-workers don’t seem aware that it can’t legally be an enforce dpolicy, and I was wondering if this was enough to throw a fit.

But at the same time I am diagnosed OCPD, so perceived rule breaking of others does an absolute TRIP in my brain. So that’s why I asked ya’ll before doing anything.

So maybe the best course is just to one by one kindly remind people that no matter what middle management say in team meetings, if they want to talk about their pay, they should and legally are protected in doing so.
