Google sued by ex-recruiter over alleged anti-white, Asian bias

by BLOOMBERG

A former recruiter for YouTube and Google alleged in a lawsuit that his employer discriminated against white and Asian men in its attempt to increase the diversity of its workforce.

Alphabet Inc.’s Google had “irrefutable policies, memorialized in writing and consistently implemented in practice, of systematically discriminating in favor of job applicants who are Hispanic, African American, or female, and against Caucasian and Asian men,” according to the complaint filed in state court in Redwood City, California.

Arne Wilberg, who worked at Google for about nine years both as a contractor and an employee, claims he was fired in retaliation for complaining to human resources about hiring practices.

A Google representative didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the Jan. 29 complaint.
