This is a signal that they have phrased their values well. A good values statement should polarize. It should disgust people whose ability to work effectively would be poisoned by the culture that leadership strives to maintain.
A recruiting process which discriminates against people who do not share their values will create a more secure sense of belonging among people who do -- even among underprivileged groups who would otherwise worry they do not really fit in.
- Wiseacre 5y agoDo employees from underprivileged groups stay at Netflix longer than comparable companies?
- lostcolony 5y agoWho cares? Even giving credit to the point I think you're trying to make, the relevant comparison would be employees from underprivileged groups stay at Netflix as long, on average, as Netflix employees not from underprivileged groups.
- Wiseacre 5y agoIs that actually the case?
- p1esk 5y agoShould it be?

- lostcolony 5y agoNo idea! Certainly, their current DE&I reports are better than most tech companies ( https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-inclusion-report-2021 https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-inclusion-report-2...), but finding turnover by demographic is hard. My point isn't "these cultural values do/do not conflict with DE&I", but that you were asking the wrong question even to begin to measure that.
- dusted 5y agoI totally agree, they save both themselves and me the trouble of finding out if I have anything to contribute with at their place.
