Pushback
Ladies in male dominated industries: how do you identify when you’re being left behind? I recently left the legal field for a new life in IT. My coworkers are great and much less cutthroat than law. My coworkers are also all male.
Everything has been great so far, but I’m noticing that a new (male) hire is receiving different (more) training than I am and has been shadowing on-site. My (female) boss and I got A LOT of pushback today when I reminded my coworkers that our grand-boss wanted me shadowing on-site today.
I can explain the training as we do have slightly different positions, and my job will be the only one focusing on a specific program (I did receive training on that). But the pushback today gave me very weird vibes.
