Looking at the discrimination from an ethnicity, culture, or belief system as the main reason, I would change my opinion on the company.
Ethnicity, culture, or belief systems are systems that can be chosen by each person. In my personal opinion, I believe that every person has a right to choose and nobody has the right to discriminate against their decision. Imagine if I ordered a chai tea latte and I was let go by a company because the manager preferred vanilla lattes and only wanted to work with people who ordered vanilla lattes. This is absurd. I am not expecting anyone else to drink my chai. Anyone can ask about it and I would be willing to talk about it, but your opinion is just that, an opinion. We all sip our own tea.
This would indeed influence my decision to support the company in addition to whether or not I would apply to this company.
I do recognize that it can be a tough situation because some companies may have the best intention, but some employees make it rotten and taint the entire company.
If I had to seriously consider working for the company I would do some heavy research to see if it is a bad apple or a bad tree. If, upon my research, I find that it is a bad apple, I would consider applying. However, if it is a bad tree it is an automatic no.
