Technical Account Manager

Being a woman in tech, I only recently started advocating for myself at work about advancement opportunities. Because of this I wanted to ask this question to my male counterparts. When you have 1:1's with your direct reports and talk about career growth / aspirations what is your managers’ response typically? I’d like to gauge how my experience (negative) differs from others. For instance are you met with blockades, enthusiasm, dread, etc?

    Pros

    Good before change in management.

    Cons

    Was good with management, then covid happened and management changed. Was given extremely difficult tasks outside of my expertise, no assistance, and then told I didn't have satisfactory performance. New management then made repeatedly disparaging comments when they had misused my expertise. I hate using the term but it was toxic. Hopefully it was localized but I heard various other stories so I'm unsure

    Pros

    Culture is quiet good, not much of politics within/ across teams. Management is mostly transparent and approachable, recognizes your work and rewards (though a bit late sometimes)

    Cons

    Pay is not as good as compared to other players within the same industry or job grades. Promotions are difficult as there are veterans stuck in the same position for decades, very difficult to wade through the stale waters to reach the position you desire though you are skilled enough
