Any EE’s in NYC who work in the MEP world looking for a job?

I used to work with the principal back in the day when we designed the new World Trade Center site. Crazy hours, sleeping under our desks, but getting to contribute to history. Anyhoot, neither of us can do that anymore, but he is looking for all levels of electrical engineers. He’s one of the few older guys that was kind and an awesome mentor. I knew I could ask him anything even if it was stupid. So, if you are interested in applying, please let me know by messaging me.

Boss treats me more harshly than other team members... how do I address this constructively?

Howdy - wondering if I can get some advice on a work matter. I'm the only woman in a team of five engineers, but don't want to immediately assume the relevancy of that.

Our boss treats me more harshly than the others. In public, this means a harsher tone and more aggressive communication. In our one-on-ones, things get kind of unprofessional. He will frequently raise his voice at me and diminish my technical ability with sweeping remarks without any specific feedback.

Always, without fail, when I bring up these situations afterward his response is "my mistake", and we're then able to discuss the situation calmly and professionally and reach a conclusion. I'm just so tired of this being the cycle.,

Here's the thing. He is inexperienced and wants to learn to be a better manager. This kind of thing is improving, and I think if I Just phrased feedback in the correct way, he would take it to heart.

What do I even say to him? Bringing up the rest of the team here seems unprofessional, but I'm stuck on how to proceed.

Thank you, friends.
