A new report from the Association of Corporate Counsel draws “a dramatic picture of gender pay disparity” for women in-house lawyers, while it shows their male colleagues may be sitting in denial.
The “Global Perspectives: ACC In-House Trends Report,” released Tuesday, indicates that a higher percentage of women than men occupy lower-level categories when it comes to in-house salaries.
“In fact, there is a higher proportion of men in six of seven tiers beyond $199,000— yet only 8 percent of male respondents believe that [the disparity] even exists,” the report stated.
