Debjani Ghosh backs Megan Caywood saying 'pay us more' in response to a pay disparity tweet

Debjani Ghosh, the first woman to hold the position of president at National Association of Software & Services Companies (NASSCOM), has been a vocal supporter of women empowerment.

And a recent tweet by Megan Caywood, Managing Director at Barclays, has found support in the top boss. Caywood, on Thursday, quoted a CNBC article with the headline, "Millennial women are 'worried,' 'ashamed' of out-earning boyfriends and husbands." The misogynist statement did not go down well with the Barclays boss, who had a cheeky comeback on the micro-blogging site.

Sharing the article, Caywood, wrote, "No we’re not. Please pay us more."



And Ghosh, just like millions of women worldwide, agreed with Caywood, and applauded her tweet.

"Well said @MeganCaywood," the tech industry veteran tweeted.


Prior to joining NASSCOM, Ghosh was the first woman to lead Intel India and the Manufacturers' Association for Information Technology (MAIT).
