Buddy of mine’s company in Austin recently did this. I asked because lately emails I get from them all have pronouns, then I got one from him and

Would you quit your job over it?

Suck it up and swallow your pride?

Happily add them and think it was a good idea?

I'd definitely start looking for another job. If they're forcing this stupid shite, even worse is on the horizon.

the only people that would actually do this are 1)utterly fricking stupid 2)rich already and don't need money 3)in a line of work that they are so in demand that going a few months without a job isn't really a big deal

No rational thinking person needing to support a spouse and children would quit over something so fricking stupid.

One positive thing about being in an oilfield related company. None of them baws would ever do that. Neither would I.

Yeah I was about to go there… effectively use the “Prince” sign and other unpronounceable symbols.

I would not quit. I would make up some stupid shite like bro/bruh. If they want to be stupid assholes and play that game, I will play it better.

I'm sure most people are not letting their families struggle over this, but I'd certainly be doing everything possible to get out of a place where they're mandating I promote cultural rot/destructive delusion.

I wouldn't quit, but I also wouldn't comply so maybe I'd end up fired if they care that much.
