Google MapsAspect claims to support diversity, inclusion, and accommodations. However out of their 16 executives and board of directors, only one is autistic. Clearly diversity and inclusion are an afterthought when it comes to themselves. They have missed an opportunity to provide their autistic participants with autistic role models. Perhaps if they included more autistic people in their decision making processes, management, and culture, the wooden box incident would not have occurred. It would appear that little was learned. Edit: let's talk about Aspect's Walk For Autism and associated fundraising efforts. In 2021 they raised over $6mil. This would be great if this fundraising hadn't "cost" them $2mil. 1/3 of donations being eaten up by the "costs" of obtaining those donations is ridiculous. Apparently packing your board and executive roles full of CFOs and similar isn't actually that effective!
