so why didn’t you pay him more so he would not need to juggle jobs?
As long as you can fire them and find a replacement for the same price, why would you ever increase pay? Especially for a worker that is underperforming?

To provide a little more info. It is possible to request a freeze on your info, but of course they make it annoying. They appear to be sourcing the data from payroll management systems like ADP. Your organization might not even be aware that they're sharing and selling your paycheck information.
I especially distrust companies using outsourced payroll and benefits startups for this reason.

Thank you for your somewhat constructive criticism. I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way. Given your username, I assume you are just as worldly as I am. In that case, I hope your HODLing habits lead to success. Eventually, you will become the same "evil" that you despise... you will eventually become... me. HODL!!
I am so confused with comments in this threads. Since when did tech employees became so submissive and scared? As far as I know, having 2 jobs is not illegal, not unethical. Many, sadly, low income families have to work two or more jobs. We in tech make enough but what if you are bored and need more challenges.

like I said, none of your business
It's interesting that a lot of people here seem to consider a second FT position as immoral/illegal. How about instead of a second FT job - studying FT for an unrelated degree? The time needed is arguably the same as a second FT and context switching is still there.

Working a side job is typically not allowed for most full-time employees, at least not without permission.
My current Fortune 500 tech company's contract explicitly said that if I moonlight, I cannot work for their competitors. And if I get a second job or contract work, I should discuss it with my manager or HR. It does't say anywhere that I cannot have second job at all. I know 2 SWE in the company who actually discussed this with their managers and got okay in writing for their consulting businesses. EDIT: Really curio…

More power to you, man. I find 0..1 of these startups provides enough daily aggravation. (Though that could argue for throwing a pile together and ending it quickly.)
