What values? Those that say that a company should strive to achive certain ratio of black and white employees, no matter their real competencies?
From what I have seen at work, gender or color of the skin has very little to do with how good worker someone is.
Because race has correlation with low-income communities that prevent people from going to colleges. The pool of competent black employees will just be smaller. I’d argue that’s a state problem, not for a company to solve.
It’s like a DEI recruiter wanted to have 50-50 men and women in software development at a company I worked for. I asked if there’re 50-50 of men and women in the total jobseeker pool. The answer was no(fewer women), but the person was determined to play a zero-sum game with other companies. It’s insane.
your suggestion that diverse hiring equals less competent hiring is offensive.
Well, so was suggestion that the Earth revolves around the Sun, once.
What really interests me is if it is true, not if it is offensive. Truth > Conformism, at least if you don't want to end up with an ossified society.
GP said two statements: 1) the Earth revolves around the Sun and 2) Truth > Conformism
You are asking to facts about that?
