I worked in ultra liberal Manhattan for more than 20 years.

Not once, including myself, did I see or hear anything about someone losing their job or even getting grief for saying they are Christian.

I always say it. I have worked in 4 investment banks. Has NEVER been an issue.

I’m not gonna look to get persecuted when it’s not happening in my life and I never hide my Christianity

I never saw any real persecution in the workplace either.

Got some teasing about it, and other snarky remarks, but nothing beyond that.

A friend is a CPA and has worked at the corporate offices in some pretty big banks, and he said that any CPA who is a Christian and doesn’t let them know during the job interview is a fool. They want Christians because they know they are honest.

However, I did have a different Christian friend who was asked to cook the books and she refused, and was passed over for a promotion.

However, later, when it came out what happened, the guy who agreed ended up going to jail.

In Oregon state government, Christians need not apply. At some agencies, the interview process requires applicants to state how they value and will promote diversity. Example

A couple years ago, a professor at Willamette University was invited to a bible study. The professor declined, saying it would threaten her job, and couldn't attend until she got tenure.
