As a marketer this hits home .. we’re responsible for making sure the devs, who get paid double what we do, can pay their astronomical rents and Uber eats habits

And the level of disrespect we receive in order to do so..

Edit -

I’m no longer in the tech industry and this is a big reason why.

I was never treated poorly per se, but I was always treated as a second class citizen. Salaries, responsibility, seniority .. you begin to realise that there’s a glass ceiling which you’ll struggle to break through.

The breaking point for me was when after conducting a detailed analysis of some data using Looker, an entry level engineer was tasked with making sure my analysis was correct. (I was the most senior marketing employee at a company with a $200m Val and reported to the CRO.)

And then his correction of my analysis - which was accepted unquestioningly - was littered with mistakes.

Once we had gone through it together; he had corrected his report and apologised to me.
