I’ve fucking had it with 23 year olds who get promoted into managerial roles they’re not even capable of and I’ve had it with being odd girl out for a bunch of fucking preppy dicks 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻AHH

23 year old in a managerial role? I think we found the problem.

OP, what's confusing is you calling your manager "my direct report". You're the direct report to your manager. If I understand correctly, your boss and your peer who also reports to your boss are both male and exclude you from some of the work. You need to speak up and make that known! In a 1:1 with your manager.

23 year old producers are the norm at RGA. They are awful, but I'm sure I would have been awful in that role at that age too. You should have other experience in the industry before becoming a producer.

Agree with SS1. You’re just getting started in your career. There’s so much to learn. Don’t allow subjective victim mentality to cloud your vision. People are there to solve business obstacles. If you’re the best at doing that you’ll rise up. If you expect people to just give you things. The world does not care.

She said the person I “called out” didn’t even bring it up to her; it was what she “noticed.” Cont’d...

I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.

I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.
