Abstract: This article shows, from the analysis of 40 interviews of high managers of a european banking company, that managerial models of diversity and performance as well as informal career management practices maintain gender discrimination. Thus, despite the many measures put in place, the patriarchal ­culture of the ­company remains and allows the resistance of an ethos and standards that still shape a professional world thought of as male.
