as a former 'bank officer' of citigroup (don't ask... years ago)...
... I was buried in female bosses and I hated it because they bumped the girls in the groups before the guys (I'm talking thousands of employees here too, on a national level)...
... that is absolute truth. :)
My bosses were ALL WOMEN in corporate America...so I crap on your stereotypical comments about 'corpo america' to whoever said it.
As far as design / creativity... it's all about your portfolio - 'the best' always seems to be doing 'the best' work in my opinion.
When I think of female designers... ironically I think of the creator of the 'citigroup' logo - Paula Sher of Pentagram. GENIUS.

I 've been working in the graphics field for 12 years now and I've had more female supervisors than male...
worked at a newspaper for 6 years before getting into entertainment work and during my stint at the paper the editor in chief was a female, the director of visuals and design was female, the director of photography was also female... half the staff photogs were also female.
Talent should always determine one's success not their gender.
I guess it depends somewhat on the market and the company.
In LA,NY or SF I think you'll find it difficult to get locked into a company with the "boys club" mentality but you get into smaller markets or regions I am sure there may be some sexism.

(Mar 28 07, 14:07)agreed. and 90% of the time now i believe it is...but there's that other percentage. it's something some women have to deal with, regardless of your experience. period. nobody's asking for sympathy...it's just a fact.
i've seen women female-dominated companies (especially marketing for some reason) act like total morons, act unprofessionally and promote their buddies. i bristle at the thought of what they're doing and it makes me sick to think of how women have worked hard to get to where they are only to have some morons crap all over it.
and i'm convinced many women do it intentionally to "get back" at men somehow. just my observation tho.
- Jaline0
