She was kind of bitchy for the early/mid part of the series, mostly towards newer/inexperienced secratairies. And she did Don wrong after the Hershey's suspension, voting against allowing him back despite him being (I believe) the only one that was against her banging Jaguar fatty.

I can't really think of her doing anything particularly kind, or ever going to bat for her coworkers. IIRC she may have been supportive of Rumsen when he was drinking hardcore and pissing himself. And she did recognize the greatness of Bob Benson (an A+ coffee buyer). But that's it.

I was irrationally pissed about this for a while. Don was a douchebag to most women, but those he genuinely liked as peers he actually took really good care of. Joan, and especially Peggy. The real Dons widow.
