How many women do you have in your IT department?
Mine is 0 and it has been that way ever since I started working in IT 3 years ago

OptionsDaniel333 Member Posts: 2,077 ■■■■■■□□□□Maybe it's because I work for a Bank, we have about 300 people in IT
-50/50 on the database teams are women.
-About 80% of IT management roles are women.
-I would say the "grunt workers" (server, node, printer, router repair and installations) are 90% men. We have a couple women down south. .
-Application support is about 60/40, women
-Vendors all seem to all be men.
-IT security is about 50/50
-Programmers all seem to be men. I can't think of a single woman on those teams.
-Help desk about about 23-24 people there, say 9 women. But all managers there are women (3). No male managers at help desk or our testing labs.
When I worked for Geek Squad we had ONE women in the entire district who was a "tech" (although there were women working for Geek Squad) and she was good! I learned a lot from her.
Anyhow, any specific reason ya ask?-Daniel -

OptionsSchluep Member Posts: 346These are slightly rounded approximations:
Database: 20% Female/80% Male
GIS: 70% Female/30% Male
Programmers: 70% Female/30% Male
IT Support/Security: 0% Female/100% male
Database/IT are primarily men, while our GIS Technicians/Programmers are primarily women. Overall there a lot more women working here than men. -
Optionsnice343 Member Posts: 391maybe the reason why there are no women in my department is because is strictly networking cisco. There are a lot of of CCNP and 1 CCIE out here. I haven't seen a lot of women going the cisco route.My daily blog about IT and tech stuff

The other admin I work with is smoking hot and pretty good at her job (she is my backup). Makes for a pretty funny work day when you see people hitting on her all the time. -

Whenever I go out to implement stuff I always make sure to flirt and have a tease with the hotties situated out at our clients which more than makes up for the lack of hotties in my department......
