In recent statistics reported by Statista, the percentage of female employees in the workforce of major tech companies in the United States ranges from 43 percent to 26 percent, a number significantly lower compared with the labor force that comprises of 46.8 of women. Veering away from the trend of these companies, Acer Philippines helps women break the glass ceiling and champions success.
According to Sue Ong, sales and marketing director of Acer Philippines: “To be working in a company whose mission is to break barriers between technology and people, Acer believes that it starts with giving people equal opportunities. It recognizes that diversity is an asset in a male-dominated industry, and Acer hopes to level the playing field for the women in our company.”
