The gender gap in the workforce is wider than the gender gap in computer science as a major. Particularly at senior and management levels, we see a severe underrepresentation of women. To me, that suggests either a hiring bias or an attrition problem, not a pipeline problem.
- tomp 10y agoMentioning senior/management levels is stupid. Obviously they will lag both the increase in the number of women studying CS in college and the decrease in sexism by employers. Wait 10-20 years, if the gap is still as wide as it is today, then it becomes a valid complaint.
