Pet to threat is a real thing for Black and other women of color. I've experienced this and seen this at first hand.
Woman in the corner photo with a pink halter top. The text states "Pet to Threat" is a workplace phenomenon where women, particularly women of color, are initially welcomed, mentored, and celebrated as "pets" (high-potential, non-threatening newcomers) but are later treated with hostility, scrutiny, or isolation when they demonstrate competence, confidence, and authority, becoming viewed
as a "threat".
