''Firm-Size and Inter-hierarchy Wage Dispersion in Shanghai''
( 2011, Vol. 31 No.3 )
 
 
For a sample of Shanghai firms, we find that while larger firms pay lower wages, managers in larger firms still receive higher wages. There are two reasons for this result. The wage gap between managers and non-managers is positively correlated with firm size and larger firms have a lower percentage of middle and high-level managers than small firms.
