    DEI is all about making money by using resources that being racist and dumb leaves on the table

    No it isnt… it’s just a quota. If you have sources showing the financial gains aquired through DEI implementation, please share

        Well… do you have 3 more sources? Preferrably of the “angry, ranty, conservative dipshit” variety?

        It really is amazing to see people not understand the concept that when you get people from a diversity of cultures and backgrounds in your country, it brings in new and good ideas that hadn’t been considered before due to the very lack of that diversity.

      I work in a DEI company, there is no quota. They just want to higher cheap immigrant labor where they can get away with it and make their minority and women workers more productive by making them feel like they are cared for.

      Why would a company voluntarily do something that would make it unpopular and lose money?

      It’s not just a quota, and the post above yours is also wrong, but honestly I don’t have the energy to argue.

        I’m sure the one above is actually right in some companies and wrong and others.

        People shouldn’t make blanket statements about all companies.

        Good companies pay by position and don’t underpay women in minorities.

        That said the person who made the statement probably works in a company where that is the case.

          The problem with DEI is that most discriminatory practices are not on purpose. People don’t underpay women because they are women per se. But because of invisible biases (e.g. holding women to higher expectations). And DEI tries to identify those issues and course correct. For example, one thing my company changed was how we write job offers to be more attractive to all, not just the typical male tech nerd.
