What’s funny is if the lefties read the article, they would be upvoting this. It’s basically showing pay parity which is pretty impressive. That’s a goal of the left.
The misleading headline is what's getting downvoted.
The headline is accurate from the site it came from but it’s rage bait. If you read the report, it shows near parity in pay which is what everyone should strive for. People doing the same job with similar experience should have make similar money if they produce similar results.
Some just like liberals, some conservatives are hyper focused on race. Personally I support equality as stated above.
To sum it up, it’s a rage bait title
So then don't act surprised it got downvoted.
That's the goal of everyone. I don't know a single person who doesn't want to paid fairly for the work they do.
Well some people are downvoting, so it appears not everyone agrees with us that equal pay is a good thing.
I dont know about you, but I want to take every penny I can, fair or not.
Lol, and you're the reason why companies have to put programs like this into effect. Folks that are much better than you at their jobs are getting less money because of sex or skin color. You and those like you are ruining it for everyone else with that "fuck you, I got mine" attitude.
That is why I liked that it showed some parity.
People should be paid similar for similar work. Historically black employees were paid less with equal experience and education.
So I’m happy Microsoft is leveling the pay scale. The next step is to get people to talk about their wages.
