I’m surprised no one in the comments noticed that the person getting paid the same for working harder is a woman. This is sadly the norm in many businesses including those that I’ve worked for. That made this seem awfully likely to be real other than only a moron would actually put this in writing. I think this lady should just start doing as much work as her salary dictates. There is clearly no benefit to busting your ass if you get paid shit. Also, start looking for a new place of employment.
Quite literally every corporation I’ve worked in until my current company pulled this shit, but very specifically in the technical roles. It usually led to the women in question leaving, and perhaps that was the intent. When I was doing interviews for my team, I had even heard my boss’s boss mentioning how picking one of the female candidates would be “cheaper” and I didn’t understand until later what he meant. My direct boss at that company was one of the few to buck that trend where he could honestly, but that place screwed me over quite a few times in other ways. For the record, none of these gender pay issues hindered me, I’m a guy.
I’ve seen the opposite. Junior dev girl got 5x raise while I got only 20% as strong middle almost equalizing our salaries. In fact where I live I have never seen such thing. Only social cute ones usually get good raise. Introverts never
As I said in another comment, I’ve seen it at multiple places I’ve worked. I am aware of the “cute girl gets favored” issue, though never in a technical role. Honestly, I’ve never see a girl dev that fit your description at any those places either heh. I imagine they probably never made it through the hiring process as it was no secret that the bosses were sexist.

Tell me where did you see woman selectively getting underpaid, which field?
