- NeutronStar 6y agoEasy to say on an internet forum, harder to do when it could be your boss making a joke.
- theptip 6y agoThat's true, to be clear though, you could have raised it to HR without having to "be a hero" and challenge the group in public. Not to diminish the fact that even raising it to HR could be challenging in some orgs (e.g. see Susan Fowler's saga at Uber). And also worth noting that it's easier to find the confidence to report to HR in an org where the line has been clearly drawn by actions such as the dismissals that we're discussing -- that's the point of the "shocking rule" principle.
