Gender discrimination at work in this era?

Has anyone ever faced gender discrimination at work place? We’ve moved forward, we tag ourselves as quite progressive and I believed the same but never did I think gender discrimination at work place could be a thing until it happened with me! Wanted to know if anyone else ever has faced such a thing and how did you tackle it?

Very prevalent. We are sprinting towards worse than before discriminations.

I did not accept for the longest time when the same happened and even now it is difficult to speak about it. Went to therapy for the stress and feeling of worthlessness. But even now, can’t speak about it. Probably the first time I am actually sharing this openly only bcos of the anonymity.

How many women are in your office?

During the townhall at our office, I couldn’t resist but count the number of women that are actually present in tech! And guess the number? Out of around 100-150 people I could count only 9 women! (Including myself) And as I was thinking...

I have seen pseudo feminism happening everywhere around which has just wasted everyone’s time and energy over debating for false narratives. Does feminism really matter or it brought any change in corporate lives. If yes then why still p...
