EMC Target of Sex Discrimination Claims

Good for them. Emc also employs men that are here on work visas that assault and threaten women and move the men so they dont have to face what they did. They cover it up. They are made aware and do nothing.

Are you saying men are brought over here to work say from Ireland or the Near East and they are they problem because the company covers for them?

What a joke Tucci quotes customers. Of course customers would not be privy to the internal shenanegans. And, oh, make me sick...initiatives to "develop women professionally" is not what's needed. How about a program for men to learn how to behave professionally and without bias. I too am a saleswoman at EMC. While I have not witnessed raunchy behavior - but I have certainly experienced the boy's club atmosphere. Excluding women from information, participation, resources and accounts is certainly the norm at this firm. They continually undermine women, interupt them. It is of no use to raise the issue with management - they are all men, and part of the problem. I'd join this lawsuit, but the only win would be for the lawyers, and a black mark and retailiation for those who participate. EMC has already won.

As a customer, teh shenanegans is not hidden as it comes through in how they deal with and set the tone with customers. I've worked in two shops that used EMC equipment and both shops the men went out of their way to not include women in anything having to do with EMC, no more than the EMC staff wanted to deal with women. I had one engineer (while working on an issue and needing EMC direction) ask who was I as they were use to working with one of my male counterparts. I've never had any other vendor rep respond in this manner. The case explains a lot of what I've sensed as a customer......

And what of the "Women" that go out of their way to play the Gender Card?
I can't recall any other high tech company that I have worked at where women go out of their way to screw over guys that they feel are "in their way" of success.
Do you realize just how easy it is for a woman to cry discrimination? But if a man goes to H.R. and complains of being harrassed by a female coworker he is looked upon as less of a man for it.
Try taking a walk through the manufacturing plants; guys are so scared of "offending" a female coworker and ending up fired or "layed off" that they won't even make eye contact with you.
Way too much of this Political Correctness BULLSHIT!

C'mon no one can deny EMC's good ol boy network...If your not a white male forget about it...I've been an EMC partner for years and work with the Homogenous EMC Sales force daily...Due to the business we've closed I would call most friends now. However, I'm amazed that in an industry that features titans that boast strong diversity programs (i.e. Cisco, IBM, HP, Microsoft, etc)...EMC turns a blind eye to this trend and current business landscape...I'm not surprise that well-qualified Women are having a tough time at this company...An EMC buddy asked why don't I join and be the "Jackie Robinson" ...I told him I had nothing to prove and that they should know that the only color is business is green
