In the article, "Exposing Hidden Bias at Google," the author is claiming that Google favors men over women. He has reason to claim this because Google's workforce consists of mainly men, as shown in the data above. Not only that, but sexist comments in the Google workplace are made too often.
Obviously, Google is doing wrong for just hiring men to work for them. A person should be hired for his/her skill and intellect, not for his/her gender. It is not fair to the women who go into tech, especially the ones who actually should be hired, the ones with the most intellect.

I downloaded this image directly from the article because it caught my eye and this image perfectly represents the bias in the Google workplace. The two drawings represent the Android logo if it had a gender, with the male one on the left, and the female one on the right.
The reason why the male logo is only used is because of sexism. Android does not see the female logo as one that could attract people to buy Android phones.
In conclusion, people with a good work ethic and a strong intellect should be hired for jobs, no matter what gender. Gender in no way can affect the creativity and progress of the job being done, and thinking so reveals a hidden bias.
