Good evening all,
How often do you voice your opinion at work and what is the reaction?

I’ve gotten mixed reactions. I’ve noticed that when it comes to sharing my POV regarding multicultural related topics, people seem to pay more attention and I can tell my opinions are being valued. On the other hand there had been times where I shared my opinions on topics outside of the multicultural bubble and I noticed the disinterest. This of course is followed by silence. Even today, as I was sharing some ideas to my supervisor, he completely detached and started sending messages to other people, ignoring me completely. I was upset because it made me feel dismissed and not valued. 🙄Ugh...There are just so many respectability/‘professionalism’ politics in place for BIPOC people to follow that it’s hard to find a balance to keep the white majority happy. Maybe this only applies to my experiences as I’m in a 99% white agency 🤷🏽‍♀️.

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

When should a teammate go to management or HR about their partner not collaborating or contributing?

Weird question, I know, but I’ve been paired with someone who doesn’t collaborate, show initiative, communicate, know how to be a teammate, or honestly.. try at all.

We’re both new (since fall), so i had to uncomfortably call them out. I’m hoping things improve but I’m not holding my breath. I’m sure our coworkers recognize my effort, but I’m not letting this person drag me down. Please advise.
