> But I know many legal Latin American immigrants in high tech jobs. Most of their children are high achievers, and they are also often highly ranked in their companies (principal engineers, directors, VPs etc).
So you agree that if a company has 0 latin people in tech with a sizable tech workforce and a lot if latin people in the area, something isn't right?
There could be something wrong, but not necessarily. Educational attainment is generally low in areas with "a lot of latin people" due to historical reasons, including prevalent illegal immigration.
Low is the keyword and representation of them should also be low then. Not zero, low. I can't believe how naive people are about this. Do you really think cast discrimination laws are needed but the same work environments don't discriminate against everyone else?
