  Cisco Company Diversity Data

Inspiration

I chose to build this project to make company diversity information more accessible. An organization's employee makeup is an important consideration for job-seekers, especially those in minority groups. I also hope that by making this information easier to access, companies will become more self-aware of their workforce demographic.

What it does

Company Diversity is a chrome extension that displays information about the company whose website you are on. Specifically, the pop-up window will return two pie charts for gender and ethnic diversity, as well as recent controversial news related to the employer.

The data we are using is from Information is Beautiful's Diversity in Tech dataset.

How I built it

Used HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and JSON to build it. Visualizations are built using D3.js
