Oops, turns out women DON'T get paid equal to men at Bloomberg's company

I mean, according to Bloomberg:

Bloomberg Says Women ‘Get Paid Exactly The Same As Men’ At His Company. They Don’t.

The company that made Michael Bloomberg his billions has told government watchdogs it hires fewer women and pays them less than men.

In the United Kingdom, where Bloomberg LP employs several thousand workers, women earn 21.9% less than men in terms of their median hourly wage. Women occupy only 1 in 5 of the top quarter of the highest-paying jobs; the representation of women is largest in the bottom quarter of jobs.

And although an equal share of men and women earn bonuses, the median women’s bonus is one-third lower than the median men’s bonus.

Those figures come from a mandatory gender pay gap report that Bloomberg LP filed in the United Kingdom in April 2018. The reports, which are meant to spur change to reduce pay inequity, are not perfect. Companies prepare their own data — reporters have caught some companies submitting impossible figures — and corporate leaders have argued that pay equity reports fail to capture particular reasons why some workplaces have a gender gap.
