Oh, I agree with you and I am living proof! I stood up and spouted off every chance I had. It definitely affected my long term salary and chances for promotion. Even though I was a high performer and hit all my goals the fact that I made waves did not sit well with our mostly male bosses. Of course women colleagues in private would come to me and say ” I am so glad you spoke up” I would love to sue the university for all of the lost wages because of their discriminatory behavior. I do know in the 80’s a group of women in university development (now advancement) won a suit against development for the pay gap issue. Nothing ever changed and every last one of those women never saw a promotion after that challenge.
