I live in SLC and work in the Silicon Slopes and as a non-Mormon and latino I'm positive I've been passed on promotions because I can't relate enough to the management which is overwhelmingly white, middle-aged and Mormon so you can guess that they pay attention to the other white Mormon's accomplishments because they see each other on Sundays too.

I also experienced this kind of bias at my first tech job in Utah. If you talk to any non Mormon in Utah they will have a story of bias in employment, housing, education or community due to religion. It’s incredibly pervasive.
