With all the #layoffs happening and the tech market being flooded with candidates, I can only think that diversity and inclusion are going once again to take a hit.
Companies won't need to put in effort to make their companies more marketable. Parental leave and flexible hours? A multi-cultural environment that welcomes everyone? Who cares about that when they can hire a white man who doesn't need that.
This has been on my mind lately and I couldn't verbalise it until now.
Best of luck to us.
