I've met a lot of Indian female devs. -- I actually don't know a single white dev. software engineer.
Asian born, Indian, one Turkish girl (she does hardware engineering), yet I have yet to meet or work with a white american woman engineer.
I still keep in touch with some of my classmates, and the only white girl we had in class, (and she was my really good friend), is doing project management now.
I know for fact, that many indian women, if they are still with and H1-B, or going thru the green card process, can't switch jobs.
But it seems, that the women that can switch, at some point will. It is just an unattractive profession to them.
- tptacek 18y agoI don't want to make too big a thing out of it. My superficial observation is, there are more Asian female devs than North American female devs --- which, if true, is a problem for North American competitiveness long term. It's probably not true. I don't agree that engineering is an unattractive profession for women. At all.
