Just started training and doing squats. And squatted I did, but goddamn the neck pain was a bitch. I have a really bony neck and I think it contributes. Also, my gym has these near the squat rack. Do I miss out on something important if I use it? Will I be the laughing stock of strangers? Am I doing it wrong?

i used the cushion for a while but after a few months I just ditched it. It's more comfortable without one, if you place the bar correctly. Use your traps and delts.

CORRECT E.G. do-nit-rong.
hands closer together bunches up the traps and gives more natural cushioning for the bar. also keep wrists straight.
