Corporations are less risky than privately owned businesses or sole proprieties because they have many owners and each owner is only responsible for a share instead of the whole business being the responsibility of one person.

How can you deal with a female boss who is condescending towards her coworkers?

That is very difficult and you have my sympathy. Remain polite at all times is the best policy. If you ever do feel you have to speak to her about it, make sure you see her privately, NEVER be tempted to be sarcastic in front of other workers. If you do get to see her privately you could start by asking her if she has confidence in your work... but it is a really risky strategy to start questioning any boss... Is there a higher manager you could go to? But again, that can be risky if they don't know you personally. Good luck with this problem.
