It’s easy for companies to say they care about issues of diversity, but sometimes harder to see evidence of those priorities—especially in the tech industry.
At WillowTree, we take every opportunity possible to examine our practices, biases, and experiences when it comes to identity and equity. We seek and encourage honest, even difficult feedback from our teams to make sure we remain consciously and consistently active on these issues.
We work actively to raise awareness of the importance of pay equity. Every year we share statistics that demonstrate our commitment.
