Comment was uncalled for and inappropriate. However, I didn’t like the way the original poster phrased that.

I also don’t want to hold the “strong black woman narrative” anymore although I do know that’s one of my attributes.

Collectively I think it makes society not view us the same as other groups of women. Perhaps this is more for me personally

Manager 1, I assumed you were replying to my comment since you said Counsel 1 at the beginning.

I think I generally do good work… except on one case with one partner. I got added to the case at a crucial moment with no context and no time to get caught up to speed. What I was asked to do was beyond my experience level and it’s been mistake after mistake since then. I just made another mistake this week, which I promptly addressed. Still, I have to call the partner tomorrow to explain. Continued…

Hey ladies! I started a new role back in September, fresh out of college. In this role I often have to communicate with acct managers + I’ve noticed that they often question/screen me before letting me to do my job. I’ve asked around + others that I started with don’t experience this. I wonder if my “black name” is apart of this. I have always loved my name and displayed it but lately I’ve been wondering if it’s hindering me? For ref, my name is common for blk women but spelled differently.

So I started at a new role at a known retailer about 2 months ago. I am their first hire in this role, as I have more than 5 years of relevant experience leading initiatives and optimizing process across departments. While I understand it takes time to adjust to the culture, its seems like all I have witnessed is resistance to change. I already feel myself not wanting to be here long, but I'm putting pressure on myself to not be a quitter. Would you stick it out or start looking?
