Sexism at Uber from female management #UberStory
- cbanek 10y agoIt's sad to know that the only likely thing to happen from this is that Tina will be hiring more people, since people are leaving her team. New employees will be put under her, and the cycle starts anew. Lesson to people hiring on: If you're hiring onto a team, it's likely the team they're having a hard problem retaining people for. If that's management or technical problems, be careful.
- SexyCyborg 10y agoLateral hostility is a huge problem for women in tech and it's absolutely taboo to talk publically about. Female patterns of intrasexual aggression are entirely different from male. There is a refusal to acknowledge this and deal with the problem.
- reachability 10y agoSo women can't work for men, women can't work for women. I am not sure what these posts from disgruntled employees are trying to show? That some people in a 4000+ employee organization exhibit bullying and male chauvinism qualities? There is a saying - go along to get along. It's very typical and almost expected at valley start-ups for employees to work long hours. It's a sink-or-swim attitude. The employees that have already bonded and are moving the company forward don't have the time to listen to absurd accusations from employees that aren't integrating/socializing. Everyone agrees that racism/discrimination/"unconscious biases"/other-bad-things have no place at work. Respect each other. Deal with your own sh*t. Leave if you aren't happy. Don't blog your grievances. End of discussion.
