Are there any girls working as process engineers in chemical plants?

Thread Content

I’m female; after working in shifts in the workshop for some time, I was assigned to work as a process engineer there. I’m feeling quite conflicted now, as it seems like I no longer have any motivation to move forward. There are many process engineers here who do on-site work; they have time to turn valves or remove flanges and things like that. It’s difficult for me to do such tasks, as I have less opportunity to be involved in them compared to others. Moreover, I always feel that women don’t have much future prospects in the workshop – it’s confusing! Are there any other \"strong-willed women\" like me?

There are female technicians, as well as female craftspersons and female equipment specialists. Generally, companies do not prefer having technicians work on site; technical management should take precedence.

Haha, what’s there to it? Everyone can become excellent in their field. Maybe the manager just wants to test you. Besides, not many managers would actually assign a young girl to do physical work in the workshop

Well, I do fewer on-site jobs, and I always feel like there’s something missing

No thanks, no thanks. Work hard – the future is bright for you (strong woman), haha

She probably won’t do physical work for a long time, after all, she’s a girl. There are many women in technical fields; I come into contact with them often, and some of them are really skilled.

Yes. It’s just that there is relatively less work to be done on-site, and it’s less demanding.

Where do you think you rank in terms of competitiveness within the team? Technology and experience are merely the foundation; coordination skills and networks are the steps for advancement
