How is it racist if the bar is lower for minorities? They will be able to get the job at lower performance
DEI was implemented because without it, equally qualified minorities don't get hired, there's been endless studies on this. Stop falling for racist propaganda.
That's literally not how DEI works. Inform yourself.
?? I've worked in hiring and seen a meeting where managers were informed of a new goal to make teams "50% diverse". You also literally ignored the content of my other comment that included a source.
Inform yourself
Unless you can articulate extremely well how DEI works, I'm going to (likely correctly) assume you're not informed
When faced with two evenly matched employees, choose the one that increases diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
The candidates are equally qualified... If a straight, white, male candidate is more qualified than a black lesbian woman, then nothing is stopping them from going with the white dude. DEI is only meant to come into play when the candidates are equal in all other aspects.
If you've experienced it done wrong, that's a bummer... Doesn't mean we should do away with it completely. Worst case, we end up erring on the side of having more diversity. Oh no. How awful.
The current and historical framework has meant that straight, white, dudes are the default. So if we're "accidentally" going the other way sometimes, then I can live with that. I say this as a straight, white, male.
Tbh I agree with this framework
Congrats, you agree with DEI.
