A group of past and present Facebook employees have published a blog post accusing the social media giant of having a racist culture towards black, Asian and female Hispanic workers. The anonymous post said racism did not come "from the big moments" but rather from the small actions that created a culture where minority workers felt like quotas rather than equal employees. Facebook vice-president Bertie Thomson apologised, saying the behaviour went against the company's values. Facebook's performance review system was highlighted for being used to damage a minority colleague's rating.
