Microsoft has released their Equal Employment Opportunity information showing the breakdown of minorities and woman in their ranks. While I’d love to see women and minorities rank higher, I would much rather see hiring practices show that they hired the best person for the job – through experience, education and knowledge.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella released diversity statistics on Microsoft, to make good on a promise Nadella made to Reverend Jesse Jackson to release the company’s EEO-1 (Equal Opportunity form which breaks down race, ethnicity and gender of workforces by job classification) on December 3rd, 2014. Microsoft released a report saying women made up 29% of Microsoft, but civil rights activists pushed the company to release the EE0-1, which contains more accurate information.
