What would happen if your company made their document of how much everyone made, public

I would love it
People paid more will be empowered and vice versa.
My friends would probably become annoying as shit asking me for stuff.
Low performers will start bitching
This wouldn't rock the boat too much at Netflix. Netflix pays top of market and conversations around compensation are very transparent.
lucky! our management tries to hide salary info by lying to our faces about our peers' salary ranges #feelsbadman
Prima donas will start to whine. Underpaid employees would be upset. I found out years ago my boss overpaid the office idiot. Office idiot was getting more than me, and I had education and experience. If you don't do it from the start it can be ugly.
Start?
If you disclose salaries from the start it is better. I accidentally found out.
In my country, everyone's salary is public (really what they paid in taxes). I know I make more than the Prime Minister. I don't get the impression that people generally take advantage of this fact, but everyone knows its out there.
I would probably get pissed as new grad who doesn't know what a float is probably gets paid as much as me...
I think if you had it from the beginning, it could work. But transitioning there? No good could come of that.
