Primary Evidence

"Several early X.com employees observed the marked contrast between Confinity’s mostly male, twenty-something initial hires and X.com’s far more varied roster, which included parents, women, and experienced hires with decades in the financial services trenches. Deborah Bezona had seen her share of companies as a benefits consultant, and when she signed X.com on as a client, she remarked that it “was the most diverse company I had ever worked with. That was notable to me.”"
