Raytheon's Racism and Sexism

I know whom I believe.

She's a VP, not a floor grunt!

"Raytheon VP's lawsuit alleges race, sex bias

A vice president of defense contractor Raytheon Co. sued the Waltham company and one of its top executives in US District Court in Boston, contending she is a victim of race and sex discrimination. Cassandra Matthews, a vice president at the company, charged in the suit that Raytheon and her superior, chief information officer Rebecca Rhoads, subjected her to a hostile work environment for not conforming "to a meek and subservient stereotype." Raytheon said that it believes the claims are without merit (Reuters)."
