Our 2024 pay study also found a large racial pay gap, with the unit’s white members making nearly $24,000 more, on average, than their black colleagues. That kind of disparity doesn’t just happen by accident.

@forbes.com has a history of pay inequity. It is beyond hypocritical of Forbes to promote itself as a champion of women while paying female staffers nearly $13K less, on avg, than male colleagues in the same roles. www.nyguild.org/front-page-d...

We sent letters to scheduled speakers, asking them to decline to attend in solidarity with us. We want to thank Anita Hill 🏆as she is no longer listed as a speaker. 🎉 We appreciate the support from those who chose not to take part in this farce.

Let's talk about #payinequity. At @Forbes, women make five figures less, on average, than men in the same roles -- and the gap is widening!

Meanwhile, Forbes management says it will offer 1.25% annual increases -- not even keeping up with inflation.

Let's talk about cheapness. 80% of the #newsroom has gone more than 18 months without a raise.

Let's talk about our diminished newsroom. Amid an exodus of talented newsroom staff for greener pastures, Forbes hired only 4 full-time #employees in all of 2024. During the same year, Forbes hired 49 (!!) temps.

Stand with the unionized journalists at Forbes.com, who deserve better from Lane. Fair contract NOW!

@forbes.com CEO Sherry Phillips said she wanted a reset at the bargaining table. We are still waiting. Tell Sherry Phillips you stand with the workers and want to see the reset at the bargaining table she said she supports.

At the bargaining table, @forbes.com management has resisted any of our common-sense proposals that would ensure full-time staff cover the news our readers deserve.

2️⃣takeaways: About 40% of the temps hired by Forbes were part-time; and @forbes.com hired 49 temps in 2024 but only 4 full-time employees 😕, down 90% from the estimated 41 full-time employees hired in 2023.

We crunched the data provided to us by @forbes.com management - and found that management has increasingly shifted to using short-term, part-time, temporary employees instead of replacing those who leave with full-timers.

So sorry!
