Racism is alive and well. - GUI Applications Software Developer Edwards Lifesciences Employee Review

If you want to work in I.T., you better be Indian. Racism is open and blatant, with constant disparaging remarks made about non-Indians. It is worse if you are African-American. Large numbers of the I.T. staff are actually H1B visa recipients who have no skill in the jobs they are assigned. Senior I.T. management's arrogance only makes it worse, and firmly believe they can do anything and gives them free-reign to treat employees like dirt. These problems are known throughout the company, and I.T. is regarded as a joke by most. H.R. has no clue and isn't interested in investigating. Some seem almost fearful of being labeled racists for standing up to the racism, so they ignore complaints. Unless you need sponsorship, skip this place and keep looking. Don't believe a word of the company's response. The racism at Edwards is systemic and criminal. It won't be long until they are sued.
