Fellow black folks, what firm do you think does the best with D&I? I feel like my firm is super phony when it comes to this.

They’re all trash. Modern D&I only emphasizes LGBT and white feminist issues as those are easy topics. They hardly touch on race, and if they do it’s never a black issue.

I’ve seen this a lot. Huge unaddressed area.

It’s all lip service.

Where you at right now OP? I did 4 different firms over 12 years incremental 2 if we count internships. I’d have to say PwC from my experience.

They did and do all those things but don't let those things allow you to slip into the sucken place. The push is serious from top leaders but that sentiment doesn't trickle down. PwC is the epitome of well meaning white folks.

Across all D&I or specifically for us?

They’re all terrible but have only seen a decent* amt of black ppl at Accenture. From recruiting and such at college it was clear who actually had color* vs. who didn’t. But D&I efforts should go beyond just getting ppl in the door and satisfying a number


*still small but comparing to other consulting firms a lot more lol

M2 can you explain further because I believe what you’re saying was mentioned above

At the very least, it appears that EY promotes and rewards black ppl the same, if not faster, as our counterparts. It was absolutely not this way at Deloitte. In fact, I heard SEVERAL accounts of black women being rated below average because of their attitudes, despite exceptional service so they weren't placed on PIPs. The promotion and reward aspect is much more important to me than a conference and a resource group, though

All D&I preferably - but any insight would be great to hear about

Mine too. Stuck between leaving or trying to spearhead D&I

M2 I hear that. I just need to mind my business lol

Microsoft!

Also, I’ve heard good things about Amazon.

BCG does a pretty good job if you’re on the consulting side. If you’re not, they don’t care about you.
Signed, somebody not on the consulting side

Thanks for sharing this M1. This is something that I was definitely not aware of

I need some advice. I got a new job back in may of this year. Very excited for a new opportunity to learn some new things and get a higher paycheck. I started and have gotten a few projects but they haven’t consistently been giving me hardly any work to do. I’m not resourced enough. I told my manager I have a lot of free time. I also work fully remote. I am feeling very unfulfilled and not sure what I should do next. I am very self motivated and want to make great work but not sure what to do.

I feel like this is a dumb question, but I work at a small local firm, and my salary is good (52k) for my area seeing a lot only make 30-40k. It’s a LCOL/MCOL area, but I am attempting to get into the housing market at 25 yrs old with no real debt other then my car (8k). Currently I am saving 12% of my salary into my SIMPLE, and another 5% into my savings account. Should I use my SIMPLE to help cover a down payment? Or just wait and save for another year or so?
