      Soooo, it's basically a site that grades companies based on affirmitive action? I guess that's good - if you think aa is a good thing. I don't.

      Based on their report card for various companies I note that Aetna receives mostly good grades. My mother was a long-time employee of Aetna and she quit her position because it was, in her words, getting insane with the various quotas and affirmitive action policies at that company. She saw good potential leaders passed over for promotion in various departments in favor of people who fit the demographic the company was seeking. Skin color, ethnicity, gender, and sexual preference were increasingly the characteristics sought for leadership rather than, well, leadership skills.
