According to this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/a/hypatia.ca/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlZH8QBl60oodEJTdF... WMF has <7% women engineers. No idea how up to date the data is, but it lives on github if someone feels like correcting it: https://github.com/triketora/women-in-software-eng

More women work in the outreach/grant/HR world that typical technical departments.
I worked on the 6th floor and the majority of staff on that floor on any given day often was women.
3rd floor was like a totally different world.

About 17% of Google’s workforce is female and about 35% of Yahoo’s workforce is female. Overall about 15% of folks who work in technology related fields are female.
Does anyone have statistics on how the Wikimedia Foundation is doing when it comes to hiring women?
