Problem: Amazon lacks diversity
Amazon – I found the below article that proves Amazon doesn’t value diversity. So I would like to write about the lack of diversity at Amazon. Please feel free to locate additional articles about the lack of diversity at Amazon to provide content.
Amazon is prominently displaying “Black Lives Matter” material on its platforms and its CEO, Jeff Bezos, has been posting on Instagram racist emails he’s received from consumers who are unhappy with the company for taking a stance.
But the company itself has been accused of hypocrisy for the troubling conditions reported by warehouse workers during the coronavirus pandemic. An AP analysis found that more than 60% of warehouse and delivery workers in most cities are people of color. Amazon’s 2019 workforce data shows about 8% of its managers in the U.S. are black, compared to nearly the 60% of managers who are white.
Courtenay Brown, 29, who sorts packages at the Amazon fulfillment center in Avenel, New Jersey, said she feels that Amazon’s messages supporting justice and equal opportunity for blacks are not genuine. She said that most of the employees she works with at the center are people of color, but the higher-ups are white.As a black woman, I feel like it is empty words,” she said. “They don’t help our struggles. Everyone wants to join in and profit from us.”
In the U.S., black people account for 12% of the overall workforce, but only 8% of management jobs, said University of Virginia professor Laura Morgan Roberts. The number of black CEOs of Fortune 500 companies peaked in 2002 with 12. Today there are just four.
Roberts’ research looking at the careers of Harvard business school graduates found black alums got fewer prime opportunities, such as global assignments, than white graduates with the same degree. “They’re saying, ‘We’ve got the qualifications but we can’t get into the inner circle,'” Roberts said.
This paper is part of my final capstone. So please feel free to contact me should you have additional questions.
