AIA San Francisco's Equity by Design (AIASF's EQxD) committee released the early findings from its 2016 Equity in Architecture Survey during its fourth (sold-out) symposium, Equity by Design: Metrics, Meaning, and Matrices, held on Oct. 29 at the San Francisco Art Institute. The results, organized into two frameworks — career dynamics, or the challenges and perceptions of working in the profession; and career pinch points, the milestones that make or break one's advancement — show an underrepresentation of women and minorities in leadership roles and a clear gender pay gap regardless of one’s experience and title.
