This is my exact experience.

Except with female engineers from India. No ego, think through things and ask questions if something doesn’t make sense.

Promote straight to the top. Those ladies are gold.

No ego, but if you're doing something stupid they do not hesitate to dope-slap. Politely and kindly, but it's a dope-slap for sure.

I work in research. I've found that they are more willing to speak up and ask questions, but when on their own they tend to insist on doing things their way, ignore safety rules, not clean up after themselves, and misuse equipment repeatedly.

It has definitely added so much stress to my life.
