Are women community managers paid the same rates as our male coworkers? A friend learned that a new guy she's also trained earns $500 more than her. This has demoralized her, with her work output also going down massively. How does she go with this information to her boss to negotiate a new salary without telling them she knows what the new guy is taking home?

Community manager are hardly ever paid the same. It’s all dependent on property size as well as designations. Do they have the same size property, do either of them have their CAM/CAPS/etc. It could’ve also just been he simply asked for more. A lot of times with competitive pay, they went a little higher than he was making at his last property.

This is why they tell us not to talk about pay, because people get their feelings hurt rather than being rational about it.

Why is that? Is his job description broader than hers? I don't see any reason why the male employee should earn more.

Yes, provided they have the same job description. Salaries also vary depending on their YOE, expertise, and educational attainment. Nothing to do with gender at all.

They are. Both male and female CMs here are paid the same. The difference varies depending on their yoe, skills, experience and accomplishments.

Yes. And that's how it should be. Unless there are differences in skills and experience.

Maybe he has a certification? Or more years of experience?

That's why people do not want to talk about their salary. It causes a lot of problems and misunderstandings. There's nothing wrong if he's earning more than her.

She should ask for more. That is if they have the same set of skills. You know, there are a lot of factors to be considered here.
