    My concern is that dei hiring practices are curtailing merit based hiring.

    I don’t care either way what ones political affiliations are or what one identifys as as long as they’re the best for the job.

    (This is simply a critical assessment of the issue and does not reflect any personal views on dei or what some refer to as woke)

        Where candidates have amazing credentials and accolades but are terrible at the job.

      That’s why whenever I hear people claim someone was a DEI hire they always follow up with a meticulous assessment of their qualifications, awards, interview performance and achievements and they compare them accurately with another applicant that had better qualifications, awards, interview performance and achievements. They don’t simply look at the first non white cis het male in a position of power and scream ‘DEI!!!’ betraying the bigotry that is actually pushing this. No siree.
