For those of you in global@companies, how do you track gender diversity in applicants outside the US?

I’m a woman in my mid 20s and constantly face situations where people outside of cyber (still within the company) that I’m dealing with (older men in particular) who always push back against my cyber/technical recommendations even with managers cc’d. I studied, earned certs, and worked hard to get to where I am. Is it bc of my gender and age? In all honesty, I’ve written recommendations that male counterparts voiced in the past that had ZERO pushbacks.

Hey Everyone- am working on a LGBTQ initiative at my org and wanted to get some diverse perspectives on the following question- What is biggest challenge in enhancing LGBTQ diversity in workplace and what are some of the initiatives you would suggest to overcome those challenges?
Looking forward to some thoughtful responses.
Cheers 🍻

Gender expansive/trans people: how do you deal with non-inclusive working environments? My firm preaches inclusivity while also perpetuating an environment where cis white men are praised and everyone else is put down.

Showcasing gifts in nursery: family member for baby girl a stuffed animal that is blue - does not match white/light pink in nursery and is not gender neutral. Don’t want to offend by not showcasing it, but also not a fan of the stuffed animal nor the fabric (besides color). What would you do?

Anyone ever pivoted from Sales to working in D&I? I’m 3 years out of college and realized I’m not super passionate about Sales. The last time I was really happy doing “work” was in college when I took an active role in Equity, Diversity and Inclusion related events/issues. What roles are there for entry level but some prior experience?

What companies out there value Work Life Balance and Diversity that you would recommend for those looking to transition?

Hey team! I've been thinking about what success would mean in terms of this platform and general inclusion in the team. These are some of my thoughts:

1. Frequency of positive engagements (positive in a productive, constructive sense)
2. Increasing numbers of people engaging in each topic as they get more comfortable using the tool and airing their opinions
3. Some measure outside the app of team engagement in day to day interactions (changes in psychological safety)

What are your thoughts?

Finance has received quite a bit of flack for lack of gender diversity - but how can firms go about attracting and retaining more female talent?

This could work in a great way of stress burster. I mean if we can connect to Likeminded from corporate sector, it's a mother level of great feeling. And if that is of an opposite gender that's something else ☺☺

What do you think:

Teachers should/should not discuss their opinions and ideas around sexuality, gender, and religion with students.

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

Hello everyone.

Any lead would be appreciated.

Have competing offers from EY and KPMG UK Economic advisory teams( Manager/Snr Exec level). KPMG's UK technical rep and comp offer is better, but the hours appear longer. EY UK Director has had several calls selling culture (diversity and work life balance). Is there actually a substantive emphasis on this by EY? Or are 50+ hour weeks quite common?

I suspect it's going to be quite team dependent/ project dependent, and therefore a gamble in any case.

Thanks for any perspectives.

Can we talk about the 2% of Black folks promoted to partner at PwC ("leader in terms of diversity")

Thanks for doing this Paul! I'm pretty interested in data on this. Do some states have teachers w/ more student loans than others? Is there a gender gap?

looking for suggestions for how to price standing up Diversity Consulting Services for startup consulting firm?

Why are town Hall meetings so impersonal? They are all about awards / the number of people hired. I know FCB health is large, but we never hear from people who aren’t Executives. Last town hall, when discussing inclusion efforts, there were no people of color represented and one of the 4 pillars of diversity was centered around our “reputation as an organization” (that really rubbed me the wrong way). At my last agency those conversations were always led by people of color from every level.

Does BCW not allow conservatives to be employed at this company? I’m sitting through another meeting where we are highlighting amazing women and it is so politicized I am completely offended. AOC, Biden, Ilhan, Hilary... I mean at try to be inclusive when speaking of diversity. You can’t name a single female in the Conservative party throughout history?

Hi fellow fishbowl peeps! This one is for folks who are or have been @Accenture in SM in sales capture role.

Hello HR Colleagues, do not be afraid of implementing equity and inclusion strategies into your organization culture work. Wondering where to begin? How to begin this work? Should your organization hire a consultant? Is this something that a HR Professional can do?

My boyfriend has debt and doesn't have a job, lives with his parents and wants to live by getting by. I'm not like that, I like a comfortable lifestyle and I'm willing to work for it. Would you marry someone who's values don't align with yours with regard to money?

I have received a written offer for a Bilingual Account Manager for a large pharma company in Toronto. 70k with 7% performance based bonus. During interviews I never set an expectation. I am meeting with HR to go over some minor details in the contract before i sign it. Would it be out of line to ask for 80k with the same bonus maximum? I am leaving a manager role with a medical device company also in toronto.

Sweet dreams, everyone. Stay safe! 🌝

How do you deal with extremely competitive coworkers?

My dear desi friends - I feel so happy, light headed and proud that I admitted and openly told that "I am a bi" in my conversation with my friend. I used to shy away from it while in India. I am glad that we take so openly about LGBTQ rights here in this country. Happy Pride month my dear friends. 😊

What is the most effective message to send to your employees to get them to write Glassdoor reviews?

I received an offer from a top company and signed the offer letter 3 weeks ago. They have been distant since then, and their top competitor has made me a better offer in terms of position/title and salary. I also feel this company is a better fit. What do I do?

Conflict of interest.
Can a company find out if you start to work for another company? Also, is it really a conflict of interest if you work for both companies in the same position, but the companies are in a different field (e.g. pharmaceutical and social media)?

I’m beyond discouraged right now. I’ve applied to countless jobs, had multiple interviews, a few final round interviews, and no offers. I know I’m a good employee and have enough experience, so I don’t understand why it’s so difficult. I have a job, but I work for a nonprofit and the earning potential is low. I need to be earning more.

Hi all,
Need your advice. One of our worker’s wife is fighting cancer. We know that he needs to take care of her and work the same time to cover medical bills. So we decided to collect money for him. Should I do it secretly and only let him know after I’m done collecting money or should I get his permission first? I need to figure out which way would be less uncomfortable for him. Thanks!

Anyone know an EY recruiter or RM? I just applied to an RM job posting and would like to make a personal connection.

Feeling confused-6 months ago, I was asked to help out with one of the HRBP teams b/c they were short staffed. Resulting in me working as an HR analyst(original role) and an HRBP. My manager recently informed me that the HRBP team wants me join their team permanently and asked if I would be interested in this mobility move. When I asked her about the comp, she said it would be a lateral move, so won’t be a comp change until year end. Great opportunity but know I will be underpaid. Thoughts?

Can you sell your used shrm cp books from the learning system? If so where?

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

I am not ready for team leader's role now . So my question is about HR area, where could I find a job with my only Russian experience? HR generalist, C&B analyst, HR BP, recruiter?

What is the craziest thing someone has done to get a job at your company and it actually worked?

I am looking for a personality assessment to match our current call center employees to our current call center managers to optimize employee-manager relations, production, and decrease turnover. Does anyone have any recommendations for this type of process and assessment?

Can someone shed more transparency around masters degrees? Do I need one? Does it help you get promoted? Most importantly: how do I get my employer to sponsor/pay for it?

What do you include at the end of an online application? Is it necessary to include FCRA rights, an EoE clause, etc., or is it okay to remove this information and include it in the job posting/advertisement?

How many organizations provide a management assessment? I think it’s wonderful to assess your staff, however I think it’s vital to assess management. People don’t leave jobs they leave management.
