Considering the way women tear each other down in the work place, I’m gonna say no.

I don't feel good about the future of anyone, period. Maybe it's the stress of work getting to my head or something but I have this weird feeling something is coming our way.

I like to think optimistically and see the strides that we are making. However I am also a realist and I do recognize that even though we have made great strides there is still alot of work to be done.

Sure, I don't see any reason to be pessimistic about the future for women. Finance will always have its ups and downs, and there's no reason why women wouldn't be very involved in whatever happens.

I started in finance in 1981. it’s more prevalent and alot more women and more formalized positions. Having a license like law. medicine or cpa is better. i don’t think the cfa did much for me in finance.

Questions about job hopping-
My average tenure at a company is ~1.5 years (with ~11 YOE), but each jump I've made has yielded progressive/tangible career growth.

I'm concerned after my most recent jump (went from a product director to a head of product position at a different, smaller company after only a year) that I've kind of poisoned future career prospects at larger companies.

Any insights on whether this type of job hopping is a complete deal breaker for potential HMs?

I’m burned out and looking at ways to leave the long hours behind while staying in the industry. How have you used your SCM skills as a freelancer or applied to a side hustle?
