Meta and Amazon Are Ending Some of Their DEI Programs

AngieArtist

Thanks to people like Robby Starbuck, a lot of companies are rolling back their DEI policies or doing away with them entirely. On Friday, Starbuck announced that Amazon was eliminating some of its DEI policies.

On the same day, Starbuck announced that Meta was also doing away with some of its DEI policies. This is right after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook was dumping PolitiFact, which sent the media and the fact-checking industry into a tailspin.

Axios, which has been positively wetting itself over Facebook's decision to move to a Community Notes-style form of moderation, wrote about Meta's decision Friday.

Mike Allen and Sara Fischer report:

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta is terminating major DEI programs, effective immediately — including for hiring, training and picking suppliers, according to a new employee memo obtained by Axios.

Why it matters: The move is a strong signal to Meta employees that the company's push to make inroads with the incoming Trump administration isn't just posturing, but an ethos shift that will impact its business practices.

Context: Meta said it was changing course because the "legal and policy landscape surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in the United States is changing," per a memo by Janelle Gale, vice president of human resources.

Could it have something to do with the incoming Trump administration? They report:

Meta last week replaced its president of global affairs, Nick Clegg, with Joel Kaplan, a prominent Republican who is now chief global affairs officer. Meta pledged a $1 million donation to Trump's inauguration — and added UFC president and CEO Dana White, a top Trump ally, to its board Monday.

Meta is apparently ridding itself of five major DEI programs. It is:

  • Cutting Meta's DEI team
  • Ending equity and inclusion programs
  • Sunsetting supplier diversity efforts
  • Ending the "Diverse Slate Approach" to hiring
  • Ending representation goals

They're happy to have an excuse to do away with these nightmare programs which have been eating away at their companies.
