Meta and Amazon ax diversity programs ahead of Trump inauguration
Story by Josh Marcus • 5h


Meta Platforms and Amazon are both rolling back diversity and inclusion (DEI) efforts, the latest in a string of major U.S. companies to withdraw from such work ahead of the White House comeback of Donald Trump, who has long railed against “woke” policies and diversity.

Meta plans to end its DEI programs altogether in training, hiring, and picking suppliers, according to an internal memo seen by Axios, citing a “changing” legal and policy landscape.
 
“The Supreme Court of the United States has recently made decisions signaling a shift in how courts will approach DEI … The term ‘DEI’ has also become charged, in part because it is understood by some as a practice that suggests preferential treatment of some groups over others,” Janelle Gale, the company’s vice president of human resources, reportedly wrote.

They will find a new name for the repackaged policy and continue.

I saw a tweet on X today from the guy responsible for adding those tampon dispensers in the men's rooms at Meta, complaining his job was axed.  Boo-hoo there, boy.
