Now do 'diversity' hiring.

State they are 'pioneering IT staffing & engineering consulting'. Blaming employees is easy - don't they use technology to scan documents for 'key' words/criteria from clients or before posting? Don't Corps already scan e-mails for inappropriate/hate phrases? Just asking 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Was it a criteria? Who is/is not 'upset: 1. Company filling position 2. Firm trying to fill it 3. Both 'Upset' because: 1. included 2. caught How'd other co-CEO feel? Why only concerned 'some' vs 'everyone' should be upset? Did firm cancel Acct/refund 💵? Just asking🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

A female engineer at Google says her warnings to the company about a male colleague with a foot-fetish were overlooked, leading her to seek psychiatric helpGoogle did not take action against the potential stalking case, she said, because she never filed a formal complaint against the man for fear of retaliation. Not your fault. However nothing about that photo of a mini dress and heels says power.
