Several other sources for this story were flagged out yesterday, even though this is very clearly a topic of interest on hacker news. This one is also currently showing up as flagged. Curious who doesn't want to grapple with an evidence-based look at bias in a tech leader.
Given that the engineer-lead study found this impact when controlling for seniority at FB while the suit-lead one didn't for rank, it certainly raises the question of why women have a lower rank for a given seniority. Charitably maybe men have more experience coming in, but if that was truly the case they could have used that as their input variable to avoid the obvious follow up concerns.
