> the recruiting/HR department no longer considered Asians of any ethnicity a minority and lumped them in with white males.

there was, IIRC, an infamous spat at a FAANG about that




It's so weird.

Why didn't big tech companies fight tooth and nail to get Asian recognised as a minority so they could then turn around and say look 'We employ minorities at a rate way higher than other companies' ?


We all realize what a scam all of this is, right?


DEI? I’d hope so, but somewhat half of the population seems oblivious.


They aren’t “under-represented” minorities. They, at least in California, provide the breakdowns.
