Seriously?...I said it "has been MY experience..."...sorry, but I don't have link for that. ...but maybe you could provide "us" a link showing that it has never happened.. {rolls eyes} ...no wonder you get so much abuse around here.
... yet you want me to "provide a link" for things I have personally heard and/or witnessed that obviously have never been digitally uploaded? ... brilliant, simply brilliant !...thank you for proving my point.
its not a good business practice. When these companies wanna be diverse for the sake of being diverse that means they aren’t choosing the best for the job, instead they are trying to appeal to the progressive crowd and get brownie points. You hire the best available, whatever color they might be.
And what is my type dviss? How am I glossing over murder? Like I said man you need to think before you post. You sound ridiculous most of the time.
My great grandparents were Italian immigrants and treated very poorly once they got to America. My other set of great grandparents escaped nazi Germany. Looks like I need to carry around this the rest of my life and play victim. Hmm. My question is how long can you play victim? Are you content with doing it the rest of your life? Must be a fun life to live
There is no single "best for the job" there are lots of "bests for the job." Products in the big tech world are made in large teams and are multistage processes. Diversity breeds innovation during this process. Having a lot of people with the same viewpoint is not good business when you are trying to reach a very broad customer base.
I say you take the best for the job. It’s simply terrible business practice thinking if you make your team diverse that will somehow create more innovation. Having the best minds create innovation and elevate further. Being diverse these days is only done for brownie points. Not hard to tell.
There is no single best person for the job, especially entry level jobs in a large company. In fact an interview process is not the best indicator for who will be the best fit, it's really easy to bullshit your way through it or appeal to the personal bias of a hiring manager. Also, left to their own devices a hiring manager will usually fill a team with people who look like them and have similar backgrounds. It's an unconscious bias thing most people do regardless of race or gender. High tech companies generally impose a strategy of hiring lots of bright people, from diverse backgrounds, for entry level positions. They then give those people the opportunity to prove their worth for advancement, while letting the bullshitters eventually fall out of the company. That way you end up with the best people in higher positions, and you have a diverse innovative work force.
James demore is a bright guy but got fired from google because he was “being sexist”. When in fact his memo for the most part was based on science and the difference between the male and female brains and traits. Other ex google employees have also reported this sort of ideology going on in meetings and in the office. https://www.google.com/amp/s/arstec...e-i-resisted-illegal-diversity-efforts/?amp=1 https://gizmodo.com/ex-google-employees-memo-says-executives-shut-down-pro-1821996513 https://www.google.com/amp/s/gizmod...-10-page-anti-diversity-screed-1797564320/amp I mean, these guys worked there. Straight from the source.
James Demore got caught publicly critizing the company he works for not a bright move. Google has 88,000 employees at last check there will always be malcontents. One thing you are right about is that people can get caught up in numbers chasing when they are given certain directives. Some of that can be the company or managers fault when the push to hard for results but don't monitor the process close enough.
The Unabomber was a bright guy too. Sometimes bright guys spend way too much energy on things that are ultimately harmful to themselves. barfo
You ask a lot of questions. You provide less answers. This morning I gave you a bunch of questions. You never followed up. Pick and choose, that's what you do. Anything you think you can make witty and clever you do and more than often it's neither of those things, instead a very arrogant attitude towards people in "debates". The memo wasn't harmful in general like people acted. Was it harmful to himself? lost him that job but opened up opportunities to speak with like minded people, fighting against the ideology I am speaking of with the likes of intellectuals such as jordan peterson and bret weinstein, sam harris, etc. Only he can answer whether it was harmful or not. Doesn't sound like he really loved his job at google considering the issues he had with them. Maybe he is happier now. Who knows
