I can say that I’ve seen blatant sexism at a place I worked previously. It often felt like being back at college working with friends in a frat.
Often fun, but I was glad when a female intern complained and they took cleaning things up seriously. That was within the last 5 yrs.
Apparently this was something that was an issue talked about among the women at the workplace for awhile and I only became privy much later when hanging with some of them outside of work and presumably they felt comfortable speaking about it.
Personally I’ve only worked with one person I think I’d feel comfortable discussing any discrimination I’ve faced.
I suspect that’s pretty common, not that discrimination is necessarily common but that people feel uncomfortable talking about it.
