<prompt> Human: Question, might be wrong sub.Why dont employers list post tax salaries when offering jobs? What variables would effect 2 people with the same pre-tax salary but different post-tax salaries? What information would employers need from new employees to give them their post-tax salary and post-benefit salary, i.e. healthdentaletcI feel like even an approximate post-tax salary is not helpful than listed pre-tax salary.Thanks  <response>: What information would employers need from new employees to give them their post-tax salary and post-benefit salary, i.e. healthdentaletcThe most important pieces of information for most people would be: Are you single or married? How many kids do you have? How much money do you and your spouse make from other jobs? In those jobs, are you an employee or an independent contractor? How much money do you and your spouse make or lose from investments? How does it break down between capital gains and income? What fraction of your dividends counts as qualified dividends? How much do you and your spouse plan to put into or withdraw from retirement accounts like a 401k? Do you own a house? How much do you pay in interest on your mortgage? How much do you donate to charity?You probably dont want to give all this information to your employer. You probably dont even know all of that information in advance.
