What part do you think is unrealistic in this?

I guess the part about not wanting to work for the demographic that currently dominates the industry...

"If it’s plastered with pictures of white guys in flannel with beards, that’s a red flag. If the exec team is all white men who look like they could be my father that’s another one."

Granted, flannel shirted beardo's set off red flags for me too.

Not to mention that those descriptions don't judge people by their abilities or the content of their character. She's simply demonstrating prejudice, which is okay as long as she accepts others should be embraced for doing the same, like if a company full of men doesn't want to hire a woman, or gays, or lesbians, or trans because of their perception of them for things completely unrelated to their abilities or the content of their character.
Sounds like we should have stock photo for business page.
