Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is still trying to amend his sexist comment that women should not be asking for raise, but should be having faith in the system.
In a memo Nadella sent to Microsoft employees this week, he said that feedback he received on the comment was a humbling and learning experience, and he is 100 percent committed to diversity and inclusion at the core, The Verge reported.
Nadella also shared internal figures that the 'wage gap' between the salaries of women and men at Microsoft with the same titles is consistently just 0.5 percent, far better than the US average and better even than the variance in the technology industry as a whole.
Nadella also pointed out the diversity figures of the company, showing only 29 percent women in the workforce, and said that this number is not good enough, and they have to expand the diversity at the senior ranks.
He further added that he will institute mandatory training on diversity and inclusion, and says he and the rest of the leadership team will work with Microsoft's general manager of diversity Gwen Houston on monthly goals, the report said.
