What's the meaning

of busting through the glass ceiling here?

"It was pretty rude of them to consider that in this day and age a MAN can't bust through the glass ceiling and rise to become a supervisor to 3 women."

Thanks a million!

The "glass ceiling" is the idea that certain people (usually women) can only be promoted so far in a company, and not to the highest levels.
