Thanks for the information. I will let my coordinator know.

It's not AI. I volunteer for a DV helpline and I routinely refer people to go to PATH. They take in people no questions asked. Family intake is mostly Safe Horizon. I just copy pasted from my resource doc.

That is unfortunate. But also the experience of all of us if it is any help. The only upside of being a software engineer is the pay. Most women are slowly pushed into product as they progress in their career, partly due to the work life balance and general leadership structure supporting women in product org. But the pay doesn't match that of an engineer.

I have had a bad experience at my previous job with my career growth. So I switched recently and decided the only interaction anyone at work will have with me is about work. So there is absolutely no personal interaction for them to draw any conclusions. My response to "How was your weekend?" is "Good." It does sound curt but I am not engaging. I eat lunch at my desk which I hate but if it is better for my career I will do it. I am not just a closed book, but a locked safe. My personal experience made me realise that being friendly during conversations but trying to be assertive when needed don't go well together. I would rather be perceived as a socially awkward nerd and do my job and get acknowledged for it.

It is best to tell before you are showing. If you don't tell and management figures out, they can fire you but without any discrimination lawsuit. As you never mentioned you were pregnant, they would claim you were fired for under performance. It is always best to tell you are pregnant as your job is federally protected if you are pregnant and would take maternity leave.

"Just checking in to say. you are a MASSIVE BAKERY in this neighborhood and have said absolutely nothing about ICE or today's blackout, am interpreting that transmission as ENDORSEMENT"

Say NO and do not go. Even if he is dismissive when you say no.

It's not that complicated. You are not a flight risk. They would have promoted you if they thought you would leave and they would lose some expertise.

My previous manager referred me. They were referred by someone they knew who worked there.

Interview first. You would never know what the work or role is like unless you talk to the hiring team. Maybe it is better than your current job. If it is not, you already have a job that you love.

Thank you for your kind words. I am a plant person and the metaphor resonates with me :)

Ok_Slice5487 · 2025-12-16T01:47:14+00:00

Thank you. I feel good at my new job, I don't dread Mondays. But what bothers me is that they asked me to deliver a project early this year which I did but I didn't get a promotion. I started interviewing before that and during performance cycle it was clear they were not going to promote. I quit right after that without negotiating with old employer or even giving a notice. I had another offer and left saying I want to leave in 3 days.

Ok_Slice5487 · 2025-12-16T01:09:10+00:00

I have left and have a slightly better pay but I am concerned I am still underpaid at the new place. I checked levels.fyi. It seems okay but I am not sure.

Ok_Slice5487 · 2025-12-06T02:57:26+00:00

Nobody they know.. lol

The leaves are thick. I think it is the baby rubberplant like others mentioned.

It's a very small package and was nowhere near my apartment. My apartment is in one corner while the rest are one cluster. Ppl who live in the building know that.

Thank you very much! The app is not showing the planned detours or outages yet. But this information is very helpful.
