The numbers in the article are difficult to believe.
"Almost 90 per cent (85.6 per cent) indicated that their stress had increased because of Tall Poppy Syndrome"
So 90% of women are very successful and "tall poppys"
"Almost 70 per cent (67.8 per cent) of respondents looked for a new role/job and 50 per cent left their previous role/job"
50% of the 90% of women got new jobs because they were cut down for being too successful. That seems like a lot of people, due to the numbers this probably involves the majority of companies. Where did they go work?
The article is very vague with numbers only using percentages. I would not be shocked if the total number of respondents consisted entirely of the authors friends and family.
Edit: it's actually worse than I expected. While there were more participants than I thought; 4k+, they were all on the mailing list of the org. So a woman's org focused on sexism in the workplace polled it's members to ask if there was sexism in the workplace and then reported it as widespread fact.
Terrible
