It shouldn’t matter that she revealed wages. Letting the company act like wages should be secret empowers the company to screw employees who don’t realize their value.
In fact, it’s illegal for them to tell non-management employees to keep their wages secret.
As a government employee - everyone’s wages are public record at my job and it causes zero issues.

as someone who had worked in transparent jurisdictions: everyone should absolutely be pissed about not having this info available publicly always in real time.

One of my favorite things to do as a leader is encourage my employees to discuss their salary. Superiors often get pissed before I tell them that “well it’s too late now, and asking them not to is literally illegal.”

It was the way the information was presented, plus it made everyone realize that there was a pretty huge gap in several people’s salaries, even those in the same job (ie, one engineer made 50k while another made 70k, doing the same job). I agree though, employees should not be punished for discussing pay.
