It always amazed be that in a supposedly capitalist country, companies do not take advantage of talent, not matter what their background is.
- CodeGlitch 6y agoI don't believe that is accurate. When we recruit obviously we don't take race or gender into account, but 90% of applicants are white males. The issue happens earlier "in the pipeline", why don't girls get into engineering? I think the reason for that is complex, but I'm not sure companies are to blame for that one. We tried a "girl focused" advert once but got so much flack for sexism that we never made that mistake again.
- medecau 6y agoCould it be that the problem is much latter in the 'pipeline' but it feeds back to earlier stages? i.e. work environments being toxic feeds back to career choice.
