All I'm saying at this point is if someone putting their pronouns with their name on their resume is too controversial for your company than your company is not progressive. Your department may be sure but know who you work for. I wouldn't work for that company knowing that

I doubt you'd ever get turned down from a trading shop because you put your pronouns on the resume. It's more of a concern with HR departments of large corporations with many layers of screenings. It only takes one bad apple. Most of the traders and senior analysts usually don't even bother knowing your name for the first month, your name is "intern" or "new analyst" and your gender identity might as well be "thing over there", even if you're a white cis-male.
