Surviving Misogyny at Goldman Sachs

In her 17 years at Goldman Sachs, Jamie Fiore Higgins rose the ranks to become a managing director-a prestigious title that was not only extremely difficult to achieve, but also incredibly rare for a woman to attain.
In this episode, Jamie tells Alex of how she survived the toxic culture of misogyny that she experienced at Goldman Sachs, and how her career there caused her to forget her values and feel imprisoned by her paycheck. Jamie’s new book is called Bully Market: My Story of Money and Misogyny at Goldman Sachs.

Surviving Misogyny at Goldman Sachs

I have yet to see accusations of "misogyny" in some industry be remotely accurate. In fact, if she could get a job without having any experience in finance, it sounds as if the men who didn't get her job were victims of misandry.

Lol. Ok, sweetheart.
