Men, Women & the PMP [Infographic]

ByElizabeth Harrin Last updated: Training

Ever wondered if women are being disadvantaged at work? Yep, me too. Apparently, according to this infographic from Simplilearn, things aren’t so bad now in the promotion stakes although we’re still behind in pay. I’d like to read some more research before I confirm that the ‘gap is closing fast’ because the latest I heard – although I can’t put my finger on the stats right now – is that women still have a long way to go before equal pay for equal work becomes a reality.

Let me know whether these figures reflect your experience!
