How much is too much? I'm in a really great organization in almost every way except my leader who is a micromanager who takes issue with both women and millennials on the team, and that just happens to be our whole team.
I guess I'm really wondering if this is just what the workforce looks like now or if there are folks out there who are truly happy and working in equitable spaces.

I think this is unfortunately not too uncommon… in some ways the organization you work for failed by promoting someone like this. If you do still like the organization I’d ask to switch teams… if the culture of the organization is more broadly like this, it might be time to cut ties. It is an organizations job to utilize our characteristics and bring out the value in us. Being a woman and a millennial can easily be used as a benefit to the company if harnessed properly. A good company and manager will bring out that value

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
