Here’s What It’s Like To Be Black @ Google…

Joel Johnson, who describes himself simply as a “former Googler,” had a decidedly different experience:

“They’d do things that were belittling, incriminating (made you appear biased or full of it), and insulting under the guise of “trying to make you feel included.” As for general reactions from employees, most seemed indifferent to ethnicity.”

Later, when asked if he thinks the low percentage of African American employees at Google is the company’s fault, Johnson answers “I usually don’t think it’s the company’s fault, but as the months went by at Google, I began to realize they very likely didn’t care at all.”
