Good layoffs! In DEI offices - bullet - 07-07-2023 09:51 PM

"...One in three DEI professionals lost their roles over a one-year period ending in December, the survey said. Over that period, the study added, non-DEI workers experienced a relatively lower attrition rate of 21%....
Speaking to laid-off DEI professionals, Howard noticed job losses concentrated among individuals who criticized an employer's diversity-related policies or offered ambitious ideas for reform, he said...."
i.e. the idiots who took themselves too seriously got cut.

These positions were an auto-overreaction "to do something" in the wake of George Floyd's murder. Regardless, it doesn't help the bottom line. Thus, DEI is the first to get cut when the economy takes a dive or a company downsizes. Not to mention, many of these folks went so far out of their way to diversify and include they did the exact opposite to others who didn't fit the niche. Good riddance...

It's no surprise that Division, Exclusion, and Intolerance officials would have a harder time staying employed.

They provide zero to the bottom line. They don't help clients. They don't drive sales. They don't make the jobs of the people who produce easier or more effective. In fact, they do the exact opposite with their endless preachy zoom meetings that employees roll their eyes and don't give a sh!t about. Management is figuring it out.

Companies taking an opportunity to rid themselves of these virtue signaling hires after they served their purpose. If the employee is a complainer or whiner it’s a bonus.
Y’all tell Alissa Heinerscheid when you see her in the unemployment line the frat boys said hey.

Management, had they been smart, would never have placed themselves or their companies in such precarious situations in the first place. Diversity isn't something you can just force on a workforce and expect them to celebrate. Real diversity comes in the form of giving so called minorities opportunities they may have never had.
Here in Memphis I've noticed a growing trend of new businesses opening up that are owned by blacks. They all, to a business, have materials posted throughout their businesses reminding people that they are a black owned business. I'm fine with them being given opportunities that may have historically been denied to them but I bristle a little at the reminder that I am basically a "foreigner" when patronizing them. On some level I get it but on another level it seems like gloating and exclusionary.
Just take my order and serve me a good product and we can exchange the only color that should matter, green.

Seems like a handy way to let you know they hate you and dont want your business.
Oblige them

HR is supposed to do these things. You don't need a separate department.

Its just a form of networking and marketing. They are trying to get Black customers to patronize them.

Racism by the same people who think it's ok to only vote for the black on the ticket.
If whites had signs that said "white owned business" they'd be run out of town by these same clowns in a week.
RE: Good layoffs! In DEI offices - CardinalJim - 07-08-2023 07:59 PM
I don’t believe I’ve ever made a conscience decision to patronize an establishment solely based on the skin color of the business owner.
What kind of people do that?
Growing up in a predominantly black neighborhood, I didn’t look at businesses as being “black owned” they were just businesses.

HR’s job shifted in the past 20 years. It used to be their job was there to be there for the employees, today they are there for management. Specifically to advise and counsel them on how to manage, train, discipline and terminate the employees. Yes, there is still an arm that procures benefits, but they do not engage in the rank and file. They direct them to a website.

Pretty soon DEI is going to become DOA.

Always switch the word black to white then reread the sentence.
Proud white owned business.
Support local White business.
We want White customers.
Proudly serving the white community
Totally cool, Right?

Are you opposed to locally owned?

I'm opposed to urban stupidity and racists who perpetually get a free pass.

She should have to attend my training seminar where, when she walks in she sees a whiteboard that says, "All fat people are stupid."
See how she'll deal with that nonsense.
Typical leftist indoctrination.
