> Also I am almost never the person to bring this kind of thing up but ... there aren't a lot of other black women in leadership at Google. Makes this targeted attack feel worse.

Unless I misunderstood the author she was his manager. It is not like he chose some random "black woman in leadership at Google" to attack.



But then, why point at "her department" when they are both in it ? My read is she's not in author's direct hierarchy line.


The author has worked the last 9 years on Flutter. Banks is the VP of "Developer X", which is the department that "owns" Flutter.


Your read is incorrect.


She was a few levels up, but in his management chain.
