Have you seen this first hand?
- malandrew 4y agoI have. Only once or twice this egregious. Most of the time however it’s explicit diversity incentives for executives if they want to hit their perf targets. If you can’t get the hires, the other way to game it is to shrink the denominator if you fail to increase the numerator.
- NeverFade 4y agoI have witnessed first hand discrimination based on race and gender. Ageism too.
- oh_sigh 4y agoI work at a FANG and there was a reshuffling in my team of 30 people as a new manager came in - there were 5 women/25 men. After the reshuffling, the 5 women became the 5 new TLs of the 5 projects our team was subdivided into. And the manager talks all the time about how he wants to empower women. Not sure if that counts. I guess it could have just been coincidence.

- at_a_remove 4y agoI saw this in academia over a decade ago. Someone who was the ultimate decider said that the group already had enough "pale males;" a look was given to me and guy in the wheelchair because, by virtue of our disabilities, we were presumed to already be on the Yay Diversity! Squad, despite our pallor and penisness. That was the phrase, I was in the room, etc. It doesn't just happen, they don't really try to hide it now.
