Just for fun, does anyone have any fun stories about being a woman in finance?? Or even just in the workplace in general! :D

I sometimes feel like it is so easy to get down and think negatively, so I thought hearing others funny stories may put a smile to some people's faces!

I have a great group of women where I’m at now, being supportive and just knowing somebody has your back. First time I had ever really experienced that. Before, women weren’t always the most supportive of others in the industry.

That is so so lovely to hear. I feel like it is so hit and miss with women at work. Some genuinely want to support you and will absolutely show that, and unfortunately some can pretend to support you but actually stab you in the back behind closed doors. Definitely great to stumble across a good bunch :)

I have a great time being a woman in finance, I think it’s a privilege and I’m treated better than all my male counterparts in my office. I love it! 🙌🏼✨

Wow!! I can't say that I am treated better than my male colleagues, but definitely equal! That sounds amazing! :D

A few years back, my husband’s best friend was in town visiting. He was mansplaining basic financial principles to me, and I was just nodding along to be polite. Then my husband walked into the room and was like “Dude, you know that’s what she does for work right?

Idk if that qualifies as fun, but it felt refreshing to have a man call out a man.

Considering a move to NTT Data in a healthcare consulting role. Mixed reviews in the bowls. Major concerns are bench policy, staff aug roles, 2 week PTO, and high turnover due to job dissatisfaction.
