Salary information is public knowledge in several countries, and even in the US, government salaries are public.
That experience shows that this information does not cause a big distraction.
Public salary helps level the power imbalance between the employer (who has more experience in negotiation and more knowledge about what people are willing to accept) and the employee, and makes it harder to hide systemic wage discrimination.
