I asked what skills I needed to advance in the company and was told to “dress for the part”. I was stunned that a promotion would be based on appearance and not experience and job performance. It was not the first time I had experienced weight bias in the workplace but it was the first time it was so bluntly stated. As upsetting as the experience was, it opened my eyes to the values of the company, values I did not support, and a company not worthy of my talents.
