Google has eradicated pay gaps between its employees, the company announced in a blog post Thursday.
This conclusion is based on Google's annual pay equity analysis, which it has conducted every year since 2012. It calculates what an employee should be paid based on their job and skill level, while adding in factors such as tenure, location, and performance. Together, the information helps Google plan what to pay each employee the following year.
