Incidents described in the Medium post included being targeted for negative performance reviews or snide comments.<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/div>\nFacebook apologised on Friday after black employees anonymously shared feelings of workplace bias in an online post. The post shared at Medium by a \u201cFB Blind\u201d profile laid out perceived slights by managers, white colleagues, and the human resources department. \u201cNo one at Facebook, or anywhere, should have to put up with this behavior,\u201d corporate communications vice president Bertie Thomson said in response to an AFP query. \u201cWe are sorry. It goes against everything that we stand for as a company. We\u2019re listening and working hard to do better.\u201d Incidents described in the Medium post included being targeted for negative performance reviews or snide comments. \u201cOn the inside, we are sad. Angry. Oppressed. Depressed,\u201d the post read. \u201cAnd treated every day through the micro and macro aggressions as if we do not belong here.\u201d<\/p>\n
The anonymous post maintained that the atmosphere at Facebook has worsened in the past year when it came to non-white workers being recognized, empowered and treated equitably. \u201cThe problem is not just with black employees of different genders,\u201d the post read. \u201cWe are remaining anonymous because Facebook creates a hostile culture where anyone that is non-white is made to feel fear for their job and their safety to report any bad behaviors.<\/p>\n
