> Still another said managers spoke down to her and her Black colleagues, adding that they were passed over for promotions in favor of less experienced white employees

I hate this kind of sloppy writing. who added that, the colleague or the manager?

EDIT: Downvoted. I guess clarity in the NYT isn't allowed to be questioned..

It reads fine to me, it’s obviously the employee mentioned in the beginning of the paragraph “Still another”

It could be the manager speaking down to them, in in the course of that, suggesting other (black) employees had been passed for promotion.
