<p>My boss, over dinner, said to me, “I think John(one of my directs) is gay, what do you think?” I said to him, “what gave him away? His Gucci shoes or his boyfriend?”</p>
<p>I don’t think people really care any more. IB is probably more accepting of differences in people as long as they perform. It is more result oriented. It is part of the reason why I stuck with it for 30 years. As a female Asian, I didn’t really feel I was discriminated. Now at my level, I feel more of jabs from some big boys elbow because there are fewer jobs and you need to push someone off the pyramid in order to stay on sometimes. It’s no different than any corporate America.</p>
