Re:Ask HN: Thoughts on diversity/inclusion efforts in tech? by treyfitty on Saturday February 08, 2020 @04:01PM (#22278314)
That sounds good in theory, but what I’ve realized is that diversity is meaningless if everyone subscribes to group-think anyway. The idea for inclusion is to promote an environment where everyone is heard, and varying opinions and contribute to thoughtful discourse. However, from my experience at a large credit card company, diversity is meaningless for 2 reasons:

1) Candidates are either recruited from Columbia or Cornell only.

2) The large Indian population at the company favors Indians, and thus the new diverse hires look elsewhere after 1 year.
