"Asked about a hypothetical, Wagner explained that if a female employee starts at a lower salary than a male colleague in the same job at Google, she may continue to make less even if they both excel in their first year and score the same on evaluations." I think this is pretty common in companies and not really related to gender. I am saddened that the society will now likely expend lot of energy to chase this problem in the special case of different genders, while doing nothing at all for the more general problem. Is this even desirable? It's just one of the many games that people play on each other. I personally think that everybody should get the same salary, period, because you can always make an argument that someone should be paid more. That seems to be the only way to make children (and I really mean people) to stop arguing.
