Title: Hi HN,<p>I accidentally discovered the hourly wage that some of my newly hired female coworkers make (offer letter left in the open). The trouble is, they have been hired in at the exact same job and experience level (programmer, right out of college) that I was a couple years ago, but they are being paid less than I was at that time.<p>The pay difference is pretty small, about $1.00, but our company also claims that our salaries are pretty algorithmic based on experience level.<p>I don&#x27;t believe that anyone at our company would consciously pay women less for the same work, but it looks like maybe its happening unconsciously.<p>I feel a little uncomfortable talking to either the relevant coworkers or my supervisor about it because I&#x27;m not sure it&#x27;s my place to comment on what they are getting paid, but it also feels like I am contributing to the problem if I don&#x27;t say something.<p>What should I do HN?
