You can google more about sexism in tech, and how many women get sexual harassed at work. I agree with you about toxic culture. And usually people in power (usually male) in organization influence culture.

You are basically saying "All lives matter." I agree that it happen to everyone. But we are talking about common sexist experience that women encounter. Please bring your attention back to "Me too", "Black lives matter" and the problem that I am mentioning above that mostly specially happen to women in tech. That's how you can become a good ally.

Being manterrupt, men repeat your ideas that you just mentioned, men don't look at you during the meeting because they want to listen to your male coworkers more.

Ugh. Being part of a tech company, I have been interviewing and working with engineers. The candidate pool doesn’t have a lot of women. The interview panels don’t have a lot of women. The eng floor in the building doesn’t have a lot of women. Being the only woman in a meeting room, we all know what has happened next.
I always wonder where these women engineers are that people keep saying that they can’t find. There are schools, boot camps, companies, even Facebook groups that you can source women engineers from. But for some reason, women engineers are “hard to find.” I want to make us “easy to find.” I want to see more women on the eng floor.
So I started a newsletter to help women find software engineering jobs from companies that actually care to hire them.
If you are looking for your next role, we hope this can be a resource. https://www.hirewomeneng.com/
If your company is hiring, we can feature your job listing in the newsletter. https://www.hirewomeneng.com/hiring
