[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a white woman in a stem field that is 95%+ men. So l don’t have the inside scoop on how to succeed as a POC, but l do as a super minority. Don’t have kids and work your butt off, but in roles that you get a lot of exposure to people across the organization - not just your team. If you do have kids and ever want to see them, then it will be slower. Try to hitch your star to a rising star woman one level above you and get promoted when she moves up rapidly - this worked for me, she keeps dragging me up with her. I’m not willing to be on the road 3 weeks / month like she is, but l have benefited 2 times now when she moved up. [/quote] Don’t sacrifice having a marriage and kids for a career. It’s not worth it in the long run. [/quote]
