I wonder why....

https://af...he-reason-i-still-cant/8qk0tlc

"I was once a single mom in a homeless shelter. I taught myself how to code and broke into tech without a college degree. Getting hired as a documentation engineer at Meta meant everything, not only to me, but to my family. I made my parents proud. I was the success story.

I really loved my time at Meta and took a lot of pride in my work and the community I built. I served as the global lead for the Black@Pride ERG and assisted with its developer advocacy team for a brief period. I truly believed I'd stay forever."

"So, when I was let go in February in a round of layoffs aimed at "low-performers," it felt like a punch in the gut.

Nine months later, my severance and savings have run dry, I'm struggling to find a tech job, and I feel that the low-performer "label" is part of the reason. "

Racist trying to drive a narrative when this woman shared mostly a story about adapting and personal failure that most people can relate to.

Pillz proving again what a bigoted incel he is.

Big Corp is performing mass layoffs despite making mass profits. This is a very common story has nothing to do with DEI.
