Barrier to promotion (5,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

glass ceiling

(Other definitions for glass ceiling that I've seen before include "It prevents the promotion of minorities and women" , "Unacknowledged barrier to career advancement" , "Unseen barrier to women's advancement" , "Barrier preventing promotion, due to prejudice etc" , "Artificial bar to promotion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
