I want to be very careful here, and I start off by stating I have good intentions :) Has anyone seen the data that shows a gender pay gap? I am not saying it isn't true Anecdotally I know it is real, but I haven't actually seen data showing it. For example, I read articles that state "studies show" but don't reference anything (or if they do, the study doesn't publish any data) Here is what I want to know. All things being equal, how big of a pay gap is it? I wonder if some studies are skewed because of factors like years of experience, a larger sample size of men than women, or place of employment. Has any research been done (with publicized data) that shows all things+ being equal, women make N% less +All doesn't mean "all" here. What I mean is taken a sample of equal number of men/women, with the same experience, in the same field of study, in the same city. I expect anyone in Seattle to make more than someone in Butte, Montana. Along those lines, I expect larger pay for consulting jobs vs startup. This is what I mean by "all things equal" Again, I am not disputing the claim. I am just really interested in seeing the data :)
