The big issue with women in the workplace is that women tend to take things very personally, and are more likely to hold a grudge for a long time over real or imagined slights. This can be corrosive to a work environment.
But God help you if you are a man and upset a woman. They will ALL gang up on you.

I worked for four years as a director for a mid-sized company where all the administrative staff, customer service, purchasing and accounting were held by women...while there were some that held themselves above the fray and behaved professionally, there was a majority that bickered and fought amongst themselves on a daily basis...our receptionist (who was very professional and personable) used to give the daily updates on who was mad at whom, what the perceived slight was and who was on who’s side...one day, I had a conflict with one of the customer service people over a customer request, no big deal, customer wanted additional information on their labels, she didn’t think their request merited consideration, and after a bit of discussion, she begrudgingly agreed...the next day, I was the object of scorn, the ones that held themselves above the fray teased me and shared a laugh, the rest gave me the cold shoulder for about a week until something else popped up...
I double down bet anyone...that if all the worker's were men...the place would run 100% better.
