Please be careful about making generalizations based on race - they're generally incorrect/unprovable and rarely provide any value to a conversation. You can rephrase this to be "I've seen more Indians do better..."
- lurr 9y agoActually it's pretty easily provable, you just need diversity numbers. Doesn't explain the "why" though.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoHuh? This is quantifiable. It’s no big mystery to anyone who works in tech, and is not saying anything about abilities, just outcomes.
- ryanianian 9y agoI've experienced the opposite in general, but I've seen some huge outliers in both directions on both sides.
- wenc 9y agoIt's not a generalization, there's public data for this. Just take a sample of the top N SV companies, go to their Management/Staff page, and do a count. (note, we're talking senior management, not middle management) I do have some ideas about why, but it requires going into some sociological analysis. (note: I'm a minority so I speak from that experience).
