I'm a first gen korean-american woman (I guess after 30 its weird to call yourself a girl). I've definitely seen this situation too, it was a little depressing.

So I've been bouncing around startups,and even started contracting under my own c-corp to make connections and money. The respect difference has been unreal. I've had to toughen up significantly, you have to really learn to read bs and move on without emotion.

That's another option you can take, I'm personally enjoying it right now.

Thank you for responding! I like hearing solutions. Listening to my own whining is tiresome.

To your point, I left my large F-50 employer this summer and started at a smaller company. I am strongly considering contracting. Your response is encouraging.
