While I completely agree that the behaviour described by the author is totally unacceptable and must be rooted out from the workplace, I also find the context ironic: Bear Stearns just before the 2008 financial crisis.<p>As we aspire to a better society, is this really the goal we want to reach for? Better female representation in a corrupt enterprise that precipitated a global financial crisis which caused hardship for hundreds of millions of people?<p>I hope the author, a member of senior management, was troubled by more than just sexism at pre-collapse Bear Stearns.
