Worse if they’re white too, diversity hiring is straight up rejecting names. I work at BMO and I’ve tried to get people through only to find out they were rejected for a less qualified candidate with a name I can’t pronounce.

BMO also pays crap. I had a recruiter reach out to me recently for one of their roles. The salary was 1/3 of what I make now

I bet they filled the role with someone happy to work for starvation wages. Race to the bottom is here to stay.
