      "Great place for women as long as you're placed in a team willing to champion you. I was lucky enough to be placed in a team with a female manager who cared about my development. I did witness the other side of the coin- there is a gate-keeping culture of sorts.. if you gel with your team mates and leaders you will get far, but if you are not a culture fit, expect the treatment to be slightly different. Different functions have different cultures as well- some are more cut throat than others. "

      "As a GM in a remote market I have been given a generous amount of autonomy to build and support my staff and business. The company does reflect the prevailing wisdom that men make more then women, period. But on a corporate level we represent an executive management that is close to 50% female and the president of WS brand is particularly aware of the unsavory and, at times, surly leadership styles a male dominated work place creates and has worked to transform her immediate surroundings with a priority of a respectful workplace."
