Forgive me if, in the current political climate, I feel a very large amount of skepticism at an opening paragraph where an anonymous woman of color expresses that she's always had it easy in the tech industry because of "DEI".
There’s an important distinction here: having an easier time in the job search does not mean having it easy on the job. Sexism, misogyny, and systemic bias still exist in tech. Companies that tokenize diverse hires also lack the programs and policies to actually support underrepresented employees once they’re in the door. It’s a classic bait and switch.
