Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Reportedly Terminates DEI Programs Effective Immediately
Jan 10, 2025, 06:18 PM
According to the provided tweets, Meta Platforms Inc., led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, is reportedly terminating its major Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs effective immediately. The company is said to be discontinuing initiatives related to hiring, training, and selecting suppliers with a focus on diversity, including ending representation goals and the "Diverse Slate Approach" to hiring. An internal memo cited in the tweets mentions changes in the legal and policy landscape surrounding DEI, noting that the term has become "charged" and may suggest preferential treatment of some groups over others. Meta will reportedly focus on applying "fair and consistent practices" moving forward. This move is said to align with recent actions by other major corporations, including Walmart and McDonald's.
