This might be controversial but i want to know just why so many benefits for women in tech ? , I saw special hackathons only for women and also special trainings from big companies like Amazon only for women and of course diversity hiring. Is it because men can't work enough and women do more or what ?
Because men forgot that women can also work, and continued to hired only of their kind. Men also went above and beyond to keep women suppressed in all the ways possible.
It's not a special place for women. It's just making their entry to tech easier. Because, husbands are already making their wives life/work-life miserable, so are the fathers for their daughters. All these programs are to bridge the gap of having an near equal perspectives in everything - the gap which shouldn't have occurred in the first place.
But yes, there's a big hole in the approach. Those who're already getting equal and ample opportunities/would have succeeded by their own (from tier 1 or some tier 2 cities and colleges) are getting access to most of these program. They will be a part of multiple programs and prevents those who could have made use of it from making use of the opportunity. Most of the profiles that you see come under this category.
But there are organizations that specifically look beyond them, into the tier 3 colleges where students could be upskilled and hired. So is the case with return to work programs as well.
Most of the men see women as someone who's not capable of doing anything. If women, by any chance, gets to their level or goes above them, men can't stand that. Why go further, some men even ensures that women are not even getting to their level, and even if they reach, be under them itself rather than considering women equal.
With all these problems, women don't complain much as well. So yeah, whatever 'special' things are there, that just tried to help a bit. That's it.
If companies feel that they're not working properly, next steps will be taken accordingly. A business can be run by just women as well, like how men ran it all this time.
For every type of women (in tech), there will be an equivalent type of men as well.
So yeah, being men, if we're not helping them, at least don't complain.

As always... you are mixing equal opportunity with preferential treatment. I'm sure none of us (ok fine most of us) are not against equal opportunity for women.
What I assume op and similar posts mention is that they don't support preferential treatment. Because that paints all the empowerment stuff in a negative light.
You are a man, isn’t it? 😂
Diversity hiring is tax saving program in many countries, it also benefits the employer brand, helps them get those CSR awards. This, infact is, top level disguised patriarchy.
Men can work enough, and so can women.
I don't know about those CSR awards , thank you
In India they also started those awards like “best women ratio in workplace”, “good place to work for women etc”. Companies comes to India, make division hiring compulsory (not compulsory in US office). Takes these awards and increase brand value.
Women will claim to work as good as men... But not renounce one opportunity to take advantage like special benefits... Heads i win, tails you lose
The left in 1977 told women to get any degree and they will be hired in that wave of inclusion while telling unis to admit more women. They skipped tech degrees and went for easy ones[1]. Tech made money, so left and women cried discrimination, (when ratio of stem in 11th is 4:1 and in hiring is 3:1), and pressured big companies to diversify. It became a pr strategy so they did it. Academics brought out false studies as to how it helps the world (when counter factual would never be published) and like everything it became a theatre too.
Next sector to be big would be the one where no is crying out for discrimination and/or inclusivity.
[1] being a nerd wasn’t cool. Look at proportion of women in stem in 1980 and 1990 compared to humanities. Now these ppl also argue for humanities roles in tech companies. Whether it’s dei, ethics, or some newly invented fake job.

Women empowerment
I guess it's no longer those days where that Empowerment is needed
Sadly it's still a need of hour.
I was having a conversation with a few colleagues the other day, and they mentioned that I was lucky and privileged to be a woman in STEM right now. This got me thinking, as I've always felt that women were underrepresented in tech roles...
Is it just me or is even a job at the best Tech companies just don’t make any sense for women?
There are always women who have great family support or husbands that are understanding and encouraging. But generally why does it seem li...

Guys - do you think women aren’t as smart/hardworking/motivated OR that the women working around you have been hired for the wrong reasons?
Girls - have you experienced sexism at workplace? How do you tell that someone’s behaviour towa...
