Associate 3: I mean he qualified it by saying that the people in his team just happen to be both bitches and women...how is that sexist at all. It's just anecdotal data, he's not drawing a conclusion. If all the guys in my group were bitches, then they'd just be bitches. Is that sexist? If the women in my group are all bitches, well then they're bitches. It's just face value, especially when he qualified it so that you wouldn't make some comment like this

Obviously both would be ideal, but if you HAD to choose, what would it be?

How much does sex appeal to mgmt count in this hypo? Prefer men if thats the case so there's no competition.

Opposite. I'm a woman

I am a woman Business Analyst. How can you respond when a solution architect is throwing you under the bus and wants you to do his job deflecting things back at you of things you ask or you identify are needed? (He is an Indian man) example: look into databases and queries to define solution, provide to be workflows, identify back end data points, reverse engineer an excel spreadsheet with formulas, queries and macros so he can create the solution.

How do I transition from a Senior Executive Assistant role to Project Management? Ideally I would like to work in tech. How should I go about this?

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Clients with toxic cultures: how have you dealt with them? We have a compliance client with a serious culture issue- they regularly throw each other and our team under the proverbial bus, throwing escalations around etc. I am one of the junior partners and suggested having an open dialogue with our C-suite contact to discuss constructive ways of working, at the very least… but the senior partner has vetoed it. Our team morale is pretty bad and we’ve had a couple of people leave because of it.
