The company I work for had a DEIB conference last week. They were asked if they were still moving forward. They said “We built this company on DEIB, of course we are sticking to our values.” I couldn’'t be more proud.
The blunt end of capitalism: cost savings. Fewer lines to justify on a P&L. They are just using presidential admin changes as cover. Without any sniff of a notion of any regulation, capitalism sees no ethical reasons for additonal cost in business. More profit is more important than people and inclusion.
What is motivating all companies to remove DEI? Is there any law against it? As far as executive orders, they only apply to government workers.
The DOJ is investigating companies for their hiring practices related to DEI.
