Women at Google are paid about $16,794 less than men in similar positions, the suit
claims, basing the estimate on an analysis by University of California, Irvine economist
David Neumark. If plaintiffs are successful in achieving class action status and win
the suit, it could cost Google more than $600 million in damages, according to Neumark's
estimate.
