Meta has announced it will no longer consider Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) policies for hiring, training, and supplier selection, marking a significant policy shift within the company.
Janelle Gale, vice president of human resources, noted in a memo that DEI efforts have become controversial as some view them as promoting the preferential treatment of some over others, prompting a change in approach.
The company is pivoting towards initiatives that aim to apply fair and consistent practices to mitigate bias for all individuals, regardless of their background, signaling a shift from past DEI frameworks.
Meta's decision is seen as an effort to align itself with the changing political climate and potentially win favor with the incoming Trump administration, particularly after Zuckerberg's recent announcement regarding freedom of speech.
