Does Harrasment happen for female emps to get better posting?

There has been scenarios in which a hard working smart employee doesn't get promotion or hike. Whereas few who are ready to share beds, go to pubs and do quid quo pro are getting every benefit out of it.

This highly demotivates the hard working female emps. So have u faced any such? Or do you know the full story of someone doing it ?

Bcoz at startups there is no time restrictions. Sometimes late night work happens and so many things are linked with it. I hope I don't need to elaborate.

Nah have never seen it happening. Promos on merit with panel involved should prevent this from happening. Mangers need to justify why someone is getting promoted.

Of course system will have edge cases. Highlight it and hopefully some proactive intervention of hr/ founders might prevent such instances from happening in future.

I was not saying which is right which is wrong. Everyone knows which is right.

If you have noticed something like this happening at your workplace you need to escalate . Better to inform this to someone in higher up that you trust rather than HR as I have seen in many cases they will try to suppress this. For promotion , generally a positive response from your higher ups is needed . For example developer to become team lead , QA manager, Dev manager and product manger also give their inputs generally and all of them need to be positive . There are exceptions though . Not getting a promotion or hike is not an only due to harassment and mostly it happens at all places and is due to office politics which you need to learn how to play.
