There are two women coders where I work, and one of them at least is pretty good.

The other one I've never spoken to because I think she's a little mental.

So nothing worth speaking of and certainly not generalizable

Yeah, pretty much. Just my experience, take it or leave it

OP is telling a truth.

I run a hiring firm.

I'm told to hire women "past experience does not matter"

Surprisingly though, it's hard to find a woman even with little requirments.

I can't believe the economy hasn't toppled due to inefficiencies like this alone... What gives?

Your company is doing it wrong then. We have 4 female programmers at our company and they are worth at least a half damn. There are about 15-20 programmer in total, its not like they are a majority or anything but they can work as well as the average man, if not better. Maybe we just have 4 unicorns

We have 1 seriously impressive female programmer where I work. Virtually all the rest are testing and project management though. There are two in my class, the one is a chemical engineer though.

Yeah and how much easier was it for her to get the job than an equal or better qualified man?

This is why even after this shit show with women and minority diversity hires is over it doesn't count for anything. I for one will be giving you credit to them

I also work in tech, there are no female techs at the company, but the office workers are mostly female and honestly they do a decent job, but I wouldn't dump a tech problem on them and expect them to solve it.

My experience isn't so bad. Work with a lot of people, very few women in tech roles but all seem to be as competent as their peers. There was recently what seemed to be a racial diversity hire and it was straight retarded. Didn't even make it through training. My mind was blown that they made it through interviews... but yeah the short and sweet of my dept is very few women and they are basically all legit.
