I always thought "uh, this thing with the pronouns in email signatures is just woke Nonsens, everyone knows what gender I am and want to be seen as" (and i still don't really get neo-pronouns, to be frank), but I now work in a very international environment, and I am so glad if people give me their pronouns, because I can't always tell which gender an Indian or Chinese name is. Honestly, it's just smart to add them and they just save everyone a lot of time/confusion.
God forbid someone is named Riley, Sam, Charlie, etc.
