Anecdotally, I knew someone who had been at the company 17 years, I had only just joined, was my boss in the software engineering space, and the VP had me report directly to him so that my salary wouldn't be visible.

I later found out when I was leaving I made ~55% more than this person.

Also of note, 50% more of someone's salary is less than 50% of your own. If you make 200k and someone makes 100k, they need a 100% raise.
