For as much as PwC preaches diversity and inclusion , I see my group becoming less and less diverse. I am in audit, wash metro.

Yes the only logical conclusion must be that PwC is made up of racist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, intolerant bigots (add in any other phobic descriptors that i forgot). There's zero other explanation. None. Game over. Not even worth the discussion. Judge, jury, executioner says guilty. We must now take off from work to protest pwc and demand that they be shut down so everyone loses their jobs because i cannot focus on my own life and my own problems knowing that such travesties exist in today's world. Once they're shut down we can focus our attention on other pressing issues like using more gender neutral terms in the workplace and organizing safe spaces for those affected by the strenuous busy season. Come on gang let's move!

Don't worry about whether they're not diverse ... worry about how that act. If they love to perpetuate micro aggressions - like fist bump their college rings and bromance like crazy and make you feel left out, then they're pricks. If they are inclusive and you are feeling like you are part of a cohesive team - then you've struck gold. It's not always about appearances, OP.

This is such BS, my team comes for 5 countries and there are only 2 Americans on the team (one being the partner)

Lol, can't tell if PwC 2 is being sarcastic or overreacting. But no one said anything about the phobic descriptor you mentioned. Just an observation based on new hires and people who stay with the firm, very subtle things, nothing dramatic like what you are describing.

Haha

White male here, the only people i get to speak Spanish with are the cleaners as well.

Hello all,

Would like to know specifically about Queer inclusion at SocGen
Societe Generale. What is the attitude of mangers and HRs towards treating LGBTQ identifying candidates? Is company really inclusive or it’s just a lip service? Considering an offer with the company but being an out and proud Queer woman, super anxious and concerned.

Thank you Nadia for your insights. I’m frustrated gaps still exist in the industry; and the diversity & inclusion needle hasn’t move much since Al Sharpton protested on Madison Ave in the 90’s

I really feel like I should be excused from this "diversity and inclusiveness" training stuff lmao. It's about implicit bias and I'm sorry it's just not believable coming from an old white man's mouth when there are maybe 4 non-white associates. We're having these meetings 3 times this week. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.

Yes! The stretching of "diversity” seems to be such a widespread symptom of this industry’s fear of addressing the uncomfortable realities of race within it. A distraction? Very “All Lives Matter” ...

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.
