I’m objectively correct on at least one point, and that is because the company I work at publishes total compensation for engineers and male and female engineers are identically compensated. CEO compensation at all public companies is published as well, so go ahead and show me some underpaid female ceo’s, I’ll wait.
The company you work at is potentially an outlier or otherwise not representative.
There’s also far more men in c-level positions for various reasons, which may indicate some confounding factors.
Should also probably consider the glass cliff.
Also maybe consider why you’re emotionally invested in disbelieving there’s pay inequality via gender.
I’m more concerned with problems presented as some kind of “unsolvable” bias. If you have 1.4million payslips that are showing clear systemic discrimination based on sex surely that is a huge class-action lawsuit right? Wouldn’t hundreds of thousands of workers being underpaid be a great avenue for direct action that would economically elevate them and provide some succor in an unjust world?
Show the data. Show the methodology. Give it to Netherlands or EU equivalent of the ACLU, let’s solve some problems!
