7 days agoThe second reason why I have always advised my teams not to consider “culture-fit” when interviewing prospective employees is that it is a covert way of discriminating against people who have otherwise protected attributes (race, religion, gender, sexuality etc).
There’s a difference between “culture fit” and “hive mindedness”. I’ve seen singular employees turn a good workplace into one with strife because that one employee has vastly different goals about how to run things, and it doesn’t go away until that employee is fired.
Also, it’s not about discriminating against future hires. It’s about not hiring shitty employees who would discriminate against their own co-workers.
No shit. This sounds like the DEA overstepping its bounds.
