> Aren't you making the implicit assumption that the reason why women are paid less at Niantic, is because women are just "naturally" bad at negotiating? Well, I explicitly and clearly stated "I can't really say anything meaningful about Niantic specifically; maybe it is a horribly sexist company". All we have is a single case of a single person being underpaid. That doesn't really prove much of anything, much less "systemic sexism". Either way, giving women all sorts of tools and methods to address wage inequality and giving men none and telling them "sucks to be you", based on the average that women get paid less (and averages say NOTHING about individual cases), doesn't strike me as a good path forward.
