Gender Differences in Executive Compensation and Job Mobility
研究发现，在控制职位等级和背景后，女性高管薪酬高于男性，晋升更快，但收入不确定性更高；无条件性别薪酬差距主要源于女性高管离职率更高。
Fewer women than men become executive managers. They earn less over their careers, hold more junior positions, and exit the occupation at a faster rate. We compiled a large panel data set on executives and formed a career hierarchy to analyze mobility and compensation. We find, controlling for executive rank and background, that women earn higher compensation than men, experience more income uncertainty, and are promoted more quickly. Among survivors, being female increases the chance of becoming chief executive officer. The unconditional gender pay gap and job-rank differences are primarily attributable to female executives exiting the occupation at higher rates than men.
