The title of the article is ‘Company A has fired the engineer whose anti-diversity memo reflects a divided tech culture’. The article was published on 8 August 2017 and was reported by Aja Romano. The article focuses on the continuous discussions and issues related to equality, diversity, and different viewpoints in the tech industry. The layoffs reflect the company's stance on fostering an inclusive workplace and addressing issues that contribute to a divisive tech culture.

Gender discrimination in an organization can have profound and detrimental effects on employees, creating a hostile work environment that impacts both individuals and the overall workforce. Firstly, affected employees may experience heightened stress, anxiety, and a sense of isolation, leading to a decline in mental well-being. The discriminatory practices can erode their confidence, self-esteem, and overall job satisfaction, contributing to decreased morale and motivation.

Gender discrimination can also impede professional growth and career advancement opportunities for those affected. Employees may face barriers in terms of promotions, salary increases, and access to challenging assignments, limiting their overall career trajectory. This can lead to frustration, disengagement, and a loss of commitment to the organization.

Furthermore, the organizational culture may suffer, as gender discrimination fosters an environment of mistrust, resentment, and decreased teamwork. Collaboration and innovation may be stifled as employees grapple with a sense of injustice. This toxic culture can result in higher turnover rates, talent loss, and challenges in attracting diverse talent in the future.

Addressing gender discrimination in organizations necessitates a multifaceted approach. Initiating comprehensive diversity and inclusion programs can raise awareness and promote a culture of respect. Implementing clear and strict anti-discrimination policies, coupled with regular training for employees at all levels, is essential. Ensuring pay equity and fair promotion processes contributes to building a level playing field. Establishing confidential reporting mechanisms empowers employees to report incidents without fear of retaliation. Ultimately, fostering an organizational culture that values diversity, embraces equity, and actively combats discrimination is crucial for building a workplace where everyone can thrive, irrespective of gender.

  This novel is easily my top favorite from Anjell. As you know this novel is in Malay language. Most of Malay novel always have a happy ending and the different about the story is the storyline. This Dheo's Malay Novel is about the story between a man, who is known as Dheo Han and a lady, who is known as Nurissa Rose Binti Noriman. The lady of Nurissa Rose got lost memory after an accident and her also coma in the hospital almost 1 year. She does not remember most of her memory. Everything changed after her father passed away and on that moment, she meets the guy, who is the name of Dheo Han. This guy's character is mysterious, stoic and cold. It's different if to compare with the lady of Nurissa Rose. The story is beginning between of them after that, when Nurissa Rose do not have the choice to work with Dheo Han and the background of Dheo Han make the story become a little bit to thriller. For me, this storyline of Dheo's Malay Novel quite interesting with the sweet ...

The article discussed about the progress or commitment to gender equality in Indonesia facing challenges or setbacks due to a lack of sufficient and accurate data.                  If gender equality in the workplace cannot be maintained, the impact on employees is profound and far-reaching.
