Effects of race on organizational experiences, job performance evaluations, and career outcomes

Article Abstract:

This study examined the relationships among race, organizational experience, job performance evaluations, and career outcomes for black and white managers from three work organizations. Compared to white managers, blacks felt less accepted in their organizations, perceived themselves as having less discretion on their jobs, received lower ratings from their supervisors on their job performance and promotability, were more likely to have reached career plateaus, and experienced lower levels of career satisfaction. We examined direct and indirect effects of race on job performance evaluations and career outcomes. Suggestions regarding areas for future research are offered.
