Microsoft and Target do this, to name 2 big ones. They don’t explicitly say so, but no respectable company will ever admit to discriminating against anyone and they’re both proudly showing off how diverse they are.
Don’t get me wrong, I personally don’t have any issues with diversity, I have an issue with people getting places they shouldn’t be because they are in a specific group. Whether that’s an elitist white male group or a minority group, I believe all discrimination is wrong.
I understand your concern but trust me, if this situation happens ever, it happens incredibly rarely, especially with Walmart and Microsoft considering the thousands of applications they receive. At some point, you have a whole lot of highly qualified individuals, some from diverse backgrounds. The better choice for the company is to pick with diversity in mind through the top. It’s just how it is scientifically, it’s what benefits the company the most.
That being said nepotism is shit, Idiocracy is shit, but meritocracy is also very much, shit.
So to be clear, you’re saying that Microsoft and Target hire people who are objectively unqualified for their roles, purely because they’re minorities?
Because that’s definitely bullshit and would be career suicide for anyone in charge of hiring.
That doesn’t answer the question, which was whether these companies hire less qualified people over better qualified people due to diversity targets. You seem to assume they do, but where’s the evidence?
If you have evidence of this, call a lawyer, because that’s a slam-dunk case.
