    I'm shocked, I tell you. SHOCKED.

    I'm glad that they're taking legal action against Goldman, though. Sometimes, it's easy to write this off as "paying your dues" (i.e. "well you sold your soul away willingly and are earning a lot of money, so the trade-off is shitty coworkers and a bad atmosphere"), but like it or not, if this is how women are treated at the most lucrative companies in this country, it's not boding well for those of us who are further down the paycheck ladder.

            Oh, you mean now someone is actually suing them for this? It's not just their accepted corporate culture anymore?

              so because they are (relatively) privileged (in your mind, in fact you are just making a sweeping generalization and know nothing about their financial standing), they are not deserving of our empathy? A victory for them would be a victory for all women.

              Uh no. I think it's about time someone did something. I have had several relatives who worked for Goldman Sachs who just left quietly when someone ought to have already done something by now.

            OY. I work in finance, and some of this listed didn't even phase me. In fact, I thought, "so what?". Then I realized how fucked up that is that I couldn't even realize this shit is super offensive on first glance.
