Popis: The research proposal described in this article was to show the perception that women workers of the last years have in relation to their work environment, difficulties in their careers, gender bias, stereotypes such as the diabolization of women, sabotaging attitude of men at work in relation to women and on the patriarchal characteristic of Brazilian society. Thus, it was possible to apprehend the vision of women within the labor market and their expectations for the future. This is an exploratory survey using a questionnaire sent through a social network that collected two hundred and sixty-three valid responses. Women exposed their difficulties, but they also brought a somewhat positive view of the working relationships for the female gender that have been improving, although still far from ideal. The research indicates the need for further studies to update the problem and answer other important questions to achieve gender equality in leadership positions, especially in organizations.
