Uber released its first employee diversity report this week, and while Uber's reputation is particularly strained at the moment, its workforce demographics aren't all that different from those at other tech companies. White and Asian men still dominate the ranks of major tech companies.

Despite these efforts, these firms have made only modest improvements in recruiting these under-represented workers for key technical and management jobs.
