To be honest, at times, I catch myself, but do you find yourself apprehensive to trust others from other races?

All the time. ALL. THE TIME. Especially when they are in a position of authority that is above mines. I'm very suspicious of white people and their intentions, regardless if it's at work or not.

I am constantly vigilant. Not sure how much race has to do with it but definitely find more comfort with people of ethnic backgrounds.

I do. I think we’ve just been so conditioned on not being able to trust.

I constantly wonder, would they be treating me like this is I were white etc?

My experience has been that you can’t. Also that your “otherness” WILL be used against you when needed.

You’re not the right cultural fit —- that’s the ticket they sell you when they don’t want to get catch sidelining or sacking you because of who you are.

I used to be more paranoid than I am now. Not so much that I didn't trust people, maybe more that I didn't trust myself and my own abilities. Like, I would question whether I was being recruited/hired because of my ethnicity as opposed to my skills. Took awhile, but I've overcome that.

Hmm I don't think I have ever noticed if I have. In general, as a woman, I am weary of men.

Hi all, I’m currently a solution architect with 1yoe and two bachelors degrees. I also hold two cloud certifications and make 60k a year. This seems very low considering what I’ve seen for average SA salaries for those who hold the AWS SAA certification. Was hoping for some insight on this and if I should seek more compensation. Thanks!
