It's worse if women are managers. In my department, a female manager will defend a analyst in our department who barks at everyone she doesn't like and will single out women who don't suck up. The people who worked hard don't get much credit while the slackers get praised with everything.
I can't say I agree with that statement - in my experience the biggest pieces of shit have been male. Here's who's managed me over the last few years:
- Mexican male - total SOB who everyone hated.
- Mexican-American male - 2 faced SOB - nice to your face but fucks you over when it's review time
- White female - only had her for a few weeks but she was OK
- White/Filipino mix female - was OK overall but lied to my face one time when I asked her if she was offended by something, she said no. Then another manager said she was offended by the same thing.
- White male - nice guy, but inept.
- White female - fat, but OK. Not good or bad
- Taiwanese female - fat, but pretty decent. She's the person who told me the VP was trying to fuck me over. The VP (who tried to get me fired) and his boss, who were both cunts were white males.
- Chinese-American female - only had her for a few weeks before I left
- Taiwanese-American female - She was hot but she was a total bitch. She left the company because she felt that the VP (2 faced fat fuck Indian American male) did not defend her in a team meeting when she got shitted on by the COO for something she wasn't responsible for. She later joined as a consultant in another department and must been making at least $100/hr
- Sri-Lankan American male - had him very briefly - outwardly nice guy but threw me under the bus when the last manager joined.
- Korean-American male - piece of shit who got me fired.
Corporate America brings the worst out of most people.

HR is just one of those useless make-work jobs they had to invent to justify having more women in the work force. Next time you hear some broad whining about inequality in the work force remember there's some guy doing manual labor in the hot sun making $12 an hour and some chick named Ashley is making $70,000 to sit in an office and push paper around asking applicants "if you were a tree what kind would you be?"
At one of my employers the CEO's Executive Assistant (basically a glorified secretary) was making USD $175K/year nearly 10 years ago.
In terms of looks, hot women will not get hired in major positions where the company's business in on the line. Most corporate women are not attractive. I've visited many small companies which make 7 or 8 figures a year who have hot admins, if you go to a company which makes 9 or 10 figures revenue that's usually not the case.

You'll notice if you work for a big company and they are trying to seem diverse on the Board the gender of the board will read as follows :
CEO (male)
CFO (male)
COO (male)
Director IT/Tech (male)
Director HR (female)
Director PR (female)
Head of Diversity (female)
We don't have COO, diversity or PR positions, but the head of HR is a black woman. Our IT director is also a woman and she fucked up a software rollout to the tune of USD $70M and counting...
