I'm NB but I've been on hormones for almost 2 years and have definitely changed a lot while working for my current company. I've been with the company from when it was a 15 person startup to being a 200 person entrenched behemoth, and it's pretty much been a great experience all the way. Granted, almost no-one uses my pronouns(Maybe 2 or 3 people in the company), however they are listed in my Slack profile, I have only ever verbally told my team them a single time, and I haven't pushed since then. The more important thing to me is that I'm seen as a human being, which I feel like I am. My co-workers for sure think I'm weird(for many reasons), but they also accept me and appreciate my weirdness, even celebrating it in some cases.
I think it's as good as can be expected. Just the fact that the company loosely encourages employees to list pronouns in their Slack profile is a big win for me.
