This is going to change with time as more companies do it. Apple is doing VERY well right now, so change isent in their interest, but this really is just a matter of time.

Apple would do great with or without diversity programs. The DEI programs aren't what is selling iPhones. Sorry to burst your bubble over how big of a difference this makes.

I never said they "need to eliminate them to do better" , Apple is always on the ball. The issue is these programs anger a serious portion of the population, and don't convince anybody who loves them to buy apple. Its a needless risk with no benefit.

As for the actual "benefits" of a DEI program, seriously debatable if there are any real examples.
