I wonder how high up you have to get before the top-tier companies are willing to make an exception to their standard interview process. Director? VP?

I was exempted and moved all the way to the last round of interviews. The compensation was even negotiated before hand. I am a regular engineer with three years experience.

Women report being driven out by men hitting on them and sexually harassing them.

Your logic:

Men in specific industries have a higher likelihood to sexually assault women, so much so that it pushes 90% of the women out of an industry with greater than 10M people. Do you understand how delusional that is?

It is better for women now than it was before, but it is still far from perfect.

Just look at the turn over rate and exit rate of women in these fields.

Even the women who objectively "make it" are being driven out of the industry in droves.

Driven out by who? A mass group of secret conspirators?

This is why we should have a 95% inheritance tax on assets over $1 million dollars outside special case like family owned businesses and a family home.

Why would anyone work hard if the government will strip it from their family.

If you run a small business, it's a real thing. On wages, it's nearly impossible to compete with the big corporations.

That leaves you with one choice - outsource your engineering to China or India. Or they could just come here (wherever here is) and contribute to the local economy by buying stuff, driving down the per capita crime rate (immigrants have a far lower crime rate), etc.

This means the business isnt feasible.

From those well-known commies at Bloomberg Businessweek, note the image half-way down:

Business is figuring out that the Trump endgame isn't going to be good.

Business isn't figuring that out, it's just good publicity. There's a difference

This company is backed by the Kushners (Thrive) and Peter Thiel. Curious: Anyone deterred from applying for that reason?
whenwillitstop · 9 years ago
Nope!
