Strongly disagree. You're being a hack by simply taking the opposite position of feminists, regardless of the truth.
Nadella gave a douchey, the-corporation-is-God response. The corporation only has its own self interest at heart. It doesn't give out raises because plenty of people will work on without them. If you want a raise, ask for it, and set up plans to switch companies in case you don't get it. Nadella's response was bullshit; feminists protested because they were on the receiving end of it. Always side with truth.
Companies would suppress wages if they could get away with it. They did, very recently - Steve Jobs and other Silicon Valley executives spearheaded a conspiracy to suppress tech wages. Now they're getting a little slap on the wrist for it.
Yeah, I've been guilty of this recently. When something gets my SJW facebook friends' panties in a bunch I find myself automatically taking the opposite position but that's just falling into the same lazy intellectual mode. At first I wanted to find a way to support this guy but he's just being a corporate shill. Execs have been saying this for years and they're just full of shit.
