Some new commentary on the evolving nature of women’s work, as a follow-up to comments on gender-driven compensation in social work:
….as the social media world becomes more and more female-driven (after all, social media power users tend to be female) will it become “demoted” in the tech industry, seen as a “soft” profession with lower comparative salaries and less room for professional advancement/leadership? Has that already happened?
