> The more interesting thing to me is not just that the base salaries were different, but that her personal bonuses were denied by her manager while her male coworker's bonuses were awarded — despite both of them being involved with the creation and distribution of the spreadsheet.
There's nothing that says they had the same manager. They may have, in which case this is very suspect. Or they could have had different managers who were reacting differently to the situation.
- interpol_p 11y agoThat's true, it's too little data to draw any useful conclusion from.
- rustynails 11y agoThe bonuses are awarded at the boss' discretion. If s/he didn't like her, there would be a bias against her. It's no different in social circles, discussion forums, etc. it's not necessarily performance or knowledge that gets the kudos. So, it's very likely she was being overlooked because the boss didn't like of respect her. I am making no comment or judgement on her.
