That has been the way of the world since time began.

People climb the ladder then cut off the rungs beneath them.

I get it. Some of my mentorees were promoted above me. I took it as a compliment. However, I was also “frozen out” very quickly for two reasons.
1. They had no one to replace me with
2. I was a threat. The two I trained who made it up were competent and hard working. That is a direct threat to those who are not.

Promotions are as much about the social aspect as the merit. Something I wish I was taught early on.

Now, it is about what color of skin you have and where you pee. Which is a nice way of protecting those on the top from being challenged.

My company also has white men at the top, almost exclusively. It seems their approach is to litter the ranks below them with all the PC people proving the company has a “rich diversity.”

The trouble is that is accomplished on the backs of no PC people doing the work, reporting to the incompetents.
