I'm a woman, who has worked in big tech. Having done 12+ years, I've seen that you need to work on the right projects to get noticed and promoted.
Have you found you've needed to work harder to get noticed and promoted as compared to your male counterparts?
As a man, I've certainly observed that among my female co-workers, but that's as an outsider looking in.
- cbanek 10y agoFor sure. Although I think again, it's mostly about people in the big companies fighting over each other for what management has allocated for raises and promotions. I've seen men duke it out as well. Overall I would agree it's a higher up-hill climb for women, but I think getting the crap work means you're generally a less valued employee (most likely some strong correlation there between being a woman, but not causation IMHO).
