I find this a bit unfair - taking two data points to make a statement about gender discrimination at Google.
Here's another datapoint - Google recently hired Margo Georgiadis, a female, to the 2nd highest position in Sales - a historically male function. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/24/margo-georgiadis-groupon-coo-google_n_979254.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/24/margo-georgiadis-gr...)
The top position is taken by Nikesh who is the highest paid executive at Google. So Margo is definitely one of the highest paid VPs at Google.
How important is this position? Well, the last person, Dennis Woodside, now handles Motorola. And the guy before him became the CEO of AOL. Also, Margo is responsible for majority of revenue at Google.
This doesn't prove anything but I just wanted to add another data point to the discussion.
