Recently saw a junior female engineer get steamrolled even though she took initiative to do some good work. Instead of commending her and guiding her along the path she had chosen she was basically berated until she changed her approach. Brought up the issue but doubt anything worthwhile will come of it. It's completely rational for anyone that consistently faces that kind of treatment to drop out of the field. The technology field deserves all the toxicity it creates for itself because it consistently rewards toxic behavior and drives out the moderating forces.
