How much diversity is there among employees at Yahoo?
Not much diversity
Yahoo! is pretty diverse. Only race that feels underrepresented is african-american. But that seems like a general issue in the tech industry - Yahoo! isn;t any worse for sure.
Diversity is important to the company brand.
What kind of people succeed at Yahoo?
I’d disagree with this. As with all companies, it largely depends on how you get along with your direct manager. My post is one made by someone who was just cut. I’d also have to chime in that I was only exposed to one segment of the overall company.
The ones who are chos n as the favorite ones
in your opinion, are women treated differently? If you think so… how?
Speaking for the sales org - yes, in that they get 8 months off where men get a few weeks when they have children. Working from home privileges also tend to favor females, though that is largely (as are most of these questions) based on the policies of lower level management. Overall, if you look at the leadership until very recently, you had a female CEO, female CRO, female head of sales... seems like a relatively female friendly org.
Women are treated pretty fairly and are given dedicated forums (like women in tech) to give speeches, grow their skills and bring to light any problems and issues.
