Yes, there are many women working at science institutes in post-soviet countries. As lab technicians with extremely low wages. There are almost no women directors or women lab heads. These are all men. In Russia, women occupy majority of work places in education and, yes, science. But mostly as low-paying teachers and lab technicians. There are of course exceptions. But this post doesn't really show the reality and gives false idea about women experiences in soviet and then post-soviet countries.

Edited to say that I know it's in memes, but I just got triggered..
