The more likely outcome is going to be that these people will be left behind. If you came in with extreme views like say for things like DEI, would you be able to work that well with a female manager or a black coworker? If you came in with extreme views about lofty wage expectations or not working extra as a salaried employee, how likely are you to be hired or be put up for promotion? Keep in mind, we are not talking about reasonable takes, we are talking about extreme views that are formed solely through online spaces and not personal experiences.

  Agreed. I’m a senior dev. With rare exceptions I work 8:30 to 4:30. My previous job gave us every other Friday off. I get things done, do a good job and get nothing but positive feedback from my bosses.

  > Keep in mind, we are not talking about reasonable takes, we are talking about extreme views that are formed solely through online spaces You’re taking it out of context. I’m not talking about a 996 culture or regular overtime, I’m talking about ocasional extra push to make things work. Any full time salaried employee will tell you that it is completely acceptable to work extra here and there, when you are allowed to take it slow at times.

    No it's not acceptable. At the very least they must let you take that extra time off at a moment of your choosing.

Framing DEI skepticism as an inability to work with minority or protected groups makes me think you don’t understand the position well.

  Framing some of the extreme views of DEI as DEI skepticism makes me think you don’t understand the extent of radicalization that young unemployed people are going through.

    I think you may be imagining a disruptive person who can’t work with others, and then associating it with a political position.
