HiBob Study Reveals Gender Pay and Promotion Perceptions Between Men and Women Are at Odds with Reality
NEW YORK, March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- HiBob, the company behind Bob, the modern HR platform for midsized multinationals, today releases the results of its latest study, "Women Professionals in the Modern US Workplace." It reveals that despite progress for women in corporate America, a lack of transparency is behind varying perspectives impeding advancement.
"2022 was the year of the employee-upperhand and the Great Resignation, but 2023 was the year regulators pushed for better salary transparency and pay equity both at organizational level, and externally," said Ronni Zehavi, co-founder and CEO of HiBob. Reports like this aim to dispel myths and guide businesses in confronting reality."
