Great company vision, terrible management. Not for Minorities - IS Project Manager Epic Employee Review

Being black or Hispanic at Epic is hard. I was asked multiple times during my 1.5 year tenure "Do you work here?". Moreover, a number of people on my team thought making black jokes were appropriate. Jokingly calling me a slave, saying the N word casually, telling me how stupid the black lives matter movement is, etc. I could go on. I sucked it up for a while but eventually had to resign because of this backwards thinking. A lot of these people are from the midwest and simply are not used to being around minorities. When I was at Epic I can confidently say that less than 2% of the workforce was black or hispanic. This creates a "white bubble" where Epic workers are not really exposed to minorities.
