https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2020/06/30/business/30reuters-cisco-lawsuit.html This seems rather alarming, and I wonder if it happens at other tech companies too (places like qualcomm, Intel, etc which have a lot of Indian employees)
That's what you get when you have a company dominated by one nationality. They bring their own indigenous problems and biases to the American workplace. Cisco is a place I would avoid a all costs.
Exactly. Why nobody complain about diversity in a company with 80% Indian workforce.
I totally agree with DocuSign. I know many orgs and companies are fully totally Indian. I turned down an offer because their whole Engineering org is Indian pretty much. Diversity does not mean everyone should be non white OR everyone should be Indian or Chinese or some other color or race.
I've seen it on Salesforce
“Cisco determined caste discrimination is not illegal” . So only discrimination based on skin color counts?? Actually caste discrimination is mostly tied to color too. Generally dark skinned people are considered lower castes/untouchables by fair skinned people unless you disclose you are not ‘them’. Not only cisco .. every company should take stringent action against any form of discrimination. It has become a trend these days in US to add ones caste name as their last name to advertise they are considered higher caste in India. Sadly this cannot be addressed by any law or regulation.
Yes, Cisco determined that while there was discrimination, American laws don’t cover this... so, carry on. How inclusive of them.
It’s sooo rampant wherever the fob Indians are .. at one of my previous employers - biggest ipo success of that year - people would comment and make jokes based on a persons castes . Another thing very rampant with Indians is isolating women on the team from any socialiazation and only inviting the male when socializing ... this is more seen with folks who do not go to grad school here and have worked in India for some years
Oh, yes. I saw it in many companies. Indians never have lunch with female colleagues. Only males are invited. It’s a sad picture when you see 8 men and only lonely women in cafeteria.
Bruh wtf!! 😂😂
Looks like you have some inside scoop
This is what happens when corporations hire cheap contractors on H1Bs to cut costs and politicians turn a blind eye in exchange for personal gain. Don’t blame these people for acting this way, that’s who they are. Blame the system that lets these people in. This is a lose-lose situation for Americans and immigrants including Indians who moved here seeking a better life. Better life defined holistically, better culture, better politics, better education etc, not the TC d*ck measuring contest.
You are being over dramatic.
@NA_123 I want to live in a country that is fair, ethical, civil and empathetic. Culture like this must be nipped in the bud. Taking a nonchalant attitude towards things like this, which I suspect you are based on your comment, ends in the same societal decay that led people from those places want to leave in droves in the first place.
There are many such reporting to Cisco HR and the worst part is Cisco HR does not find anything illegal or against company published ethics code of business and the managers are free to keep doing things like that again and they give examples to other employees that if you don’t then you will be next.

Why no one cares about the lives lost in Gaza, Israel and busy in their own lives?
Good that Trump stopped the H1Bs. Last year I read a story where they conducted a Reddy vs Kama cricket match in US.
They should be deported right from the playground!
If that’s true then definitely book them and depot their asses. We’ve been trying hard to break typical stereotypes and then all of that gets undone by these morons like Reddies and Kamas (not referring to everyone).
