Things have been changing at an almost unprecedented rate with regard to power structures. The last time I saw this happen was in the 1970s, when the EEOC took off. Suddenly a lot of the off-color, sexist and racist jokes that many executives regularly told could get them fired. A surprisingly large number of people got reassigned, fired, demoted, or otherwise punished for the same behavior that previously had made them “one of the guys.” With the current #MeToo movement, any hint of wrongdoing can have dire consequences.
Tech companies are controlled by bankers and share holders, all they care about is PROFIT, money, nothing else. All this social responsiblity is a total load of hollywood rubbish for the sort of zombies that watch that rubbish. Appear to be your friend and care to get your money!
