Google fired James Damore for explaining why "disparities" in tech may not be due to unequal treatment. Good luck explaining this data, Google.

There’s a list of factors that cause this. Can’t remember it now. If you need it just as any Democrat politician why they pay women less than men and they can explain,

Meaningless if most of the women are cooks for example and most of the men at Google are top notch programmers. That's just the point James Damore was making.

Well men should be paid more than women, men are betterer than women. We are smarter they are more dumberer.

This is an employee led effort. Does this not contribute to a hostile workplace? Fire these employees as well, Googlebias.

Wait until the civil rights attorneys catch wind of how little third world labor in India is paid to do programming vs. those in America working for the same company. Discrimination?

This unequal pay stuff gets me since I have a government job which specifies the salary without distinction as to how a man or woman would be paid in the job.

Its all the same, its all equal. Everybody gets paid the same.

It must take a lot of bong hits to come up with this kind of research that claims pay discrimination.

Buried near the end of the Times article:

In its annual diversity report, Google said only 20 percent of its higher-paid technical positions are filled by women, and women make up 31 percent of the company’s overall work force.

The percentage of women in technical positions is lower than the overall percentage of female employees, with more women in sales, marketing, human resources or legal. Those roles, according to Ms. Naughton, do not have the same entry-level or midcareer salaries as technical positions.

Men at Google are paid more because most are engineers who work to develop and support software. Men at Google also work longer hours and are more likely to meet their KOs and qualify for bigger bonuses.

Women at Google are paid less because most are engaged in sales and support of content and services. Most have much better work/life balance.

Anyone working at Google who wants a deeper perception should read their Nietzsche.

1. Starting salary & when hired & how long continuously in that position, 2. actual responsibilities & authority irrespective of “job level”, 3. nature of assigned duties (yes, companies do value some work/projects/missions differently than others), and 4. if Google is like many Liberal outfits a degree & what level of academic degree - can all make for pay differences; and mere snapshots of salaries tell none of those variables.

Maybe the women are not worth as much. Maybe the women are spending more time worrying about pay than working. Maybe they don’t work as much overall. Get them fainting chairs.

The more positive affirmative action Google undertakes to equalize their hiring, the more disparate the likely performances will be.

Just look at affirmative action in college admissions.

Gotta love these "Rat Fights" ... something which any of us who have been paying attention could have predicted years ago ...

The Leftist narrative is wholly incompatible with any semblance of decent cultural progress ... they rant and rave about "justice" but in the end all they want is tyrannical power for themselves ... but we're on to them, and the squishy middle is finally getting a clue as well ... the Left is finished, as well as their power-hungry handmaidens, the Democrat Party
