Flat salaries may fix this? You basically join at the same bracket publicly. No performance bonuses and all salaries increases are directly based on years put in. Everyone joins with the same options across the board. For each male hired there must be a female hired. No roles. Everyone has the same title: "Engineer". Off sites are strictly prohibited.
Is this what the lawyers want?

This is how Japan worked for a long while; now it's moving toward a more meritocratic approach with performance bonuses and raises because the fact of the matter is that it sucks for people who work hard to be paid the same as the guy who comes in 9-5 and does average work.
- umanwizard 9y agoIncidentally, this is not too different from how top-tier law firms work. For example: http://abovethelaw.com/2016/06/breaking-ny-to-180k-cravath-raises-associate-base-salaries/2/ http://abovethelaw.com/2016/06/breaking-ny-to-180k-cravath-r...
- thekashifmalik 9y agoHaha that'd be ridiculous! Imagine working all night and getting paid the same as someone who works half as much. That being said, salaries are not determined by how hard you work but rather how much the company needs you to stay.
- Consultant32452 9y ago> Imagine working all night and getting paid the same as someone who works half as much. It's the socialist dream!
- kamaal 9y ago>>Imagine working all night and getting paid the same as someone who works half as much. You don't. And that's where it will all begin to break down. Things as a whole will be mediocre.
- astrange 9y ago> Imagine working all night and getting paid the same as someone who works half as much. Isn't that the ideal? http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2015/08/28/435583328/episode-647-hard-work-is-irrelevant http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2015/08/28/435583328/episo...
- 0xbear 9y agoWho would want to work at such a place? Last I checked this is still a free country and you can work wherever you want.
- hkmurakami 9y agoYou've described the typical "up or out" professional services firm.
- govg 9y ago> For each male hired there must be a female hired. General grad CS populations are split 4:1 in favor of males. It won't end well when you cut out a significant amount of your candidate pool because you want to promote "diversity". Why 50:50? Why not majority women? Any cutoff would be arbitrary.
