I was treated unfairly at adobe and hr did nothing. So many terrible managers but no way to notify hr without risking your career.
Same at Microsoft, hr did nothing and managed out female that came forward.
The problem with many women and diversity employees is that they correlate "unfairness" or challenges they have at work with their gender, race, color, etc. Many people are treated unfairly including me today but I did not say that MICROSOFT is unfair to MEN. I only think my manager was unfair to me in this particular situation. Please elaborate on how you were treated unfairly because you are a woman or don't make such an arbitrary statement with zero context
Amen.
"mundane tasks and indignities" welcome to my life of monotonously transforming protos and maintaining legacy code. You won't hear me calling Google sexist because I've been relegated to perform basic tasks.
Don't let people walk all over you be a strict Susan. Otherwise leave . Relationships and jobs are very much alike.
The not let anyone walk all over you is what triggered the challenging behavior from manager, escalated verbal aggression differed between male and female interactions. Manager mistakenly thought behavior was going to work why female but realize it wasn’t going to be accepted.
Manager escalated behavior even further but played nice when hr was around.
F*** Adobe. Unfortunately sexual harassment is now the norm in America.
HR is not to protect or take care of you, it is there to protect company . You are just an asset or resource, always replaceable. Only way out would be to sue with proper documentation and logs.
Start with collecting evidence. When situation is “she said he said” HR can’t do anything.

I am starting to think Chinese interviewers currently fail non-Chinese candidates on purpose.
There was a horror story a few weeks ago here of an employee who was forced to work after a miscarriage
Sounds like a hellhole
