Tech loves to talk ‘diversity,’ but some firms are actually moving backwards
White male executives declined across the sector by 5.9%, and we discovered significant increases in the representation of all other groups, even Hispanic women, in the top jobs.

This pattern has been described in previous research as being primarily a defensive response to diversity demands rather than a commitment to promoting employment diversity.
