I have often wondered if being honest when I fill out EEOC / diversity forms if that limits me from new work / promotions. I used to be able to hide my disability, but it is progressive so now it's not as easy to hide. Thoughts?

Hi all. Looking for advice. I’m trying to decide between 2 job offers (same salary) but different positions. One is a study director (essentially a project manager for a medical device company) and the other is in Quality Assurance (medical device company as well). Study director position company is slightly smaller but growing. I really want growth possibilities and a good career future. Any advice?

I work with a coworker who calls out sick on almost a weekly basis and I'm starting to get frustrated.

Looking to break into the food tech industry in the bay area - has anyone worked for any empowering companies that they can speak for as having a truly strong company culture? Have worked as a program manager for the last two years at a sustainable food company, but the diversity, equity and inclusion, work-life balance, and level of respect are all oldschool and not ideal for queer, non-binary folx such as myself. THANK YOU in advance :)

Any Deloitte fish do IVF and medical cryopreservation of embryos (not social cryopreservation - as my wife has diminished ovarian reserve)? I’m having a hard time understanding our benefits for embryo freezing. We would like to retrieve as many as possible, given diminished ovarian reserve, and would commence with IVF immediately, hoping to bank others for children two and three

I have a speech impediment and can't do presentations very well; my employees think this counts as preferential treatment. I would LOVE to be rid of this but it's an actual disability and I don't think anyone really understands that

I'm wanting to advance to a lead/supervisor position but I keep being turned down because I don't have enough supervisory experience. I have 5+ years in medical coding, 3 in medical records and 10 in accounting. I've mostly worked in smaller facilities where I've taken on numerous roles under one title. How am I supposed to gain supervisory experience if no one will give me a chance?

Best consulting firms for real inclusion?

Hello! Does anyone know of any openings for diversity and inclusion drivers/promoters in India? I joined as an HR analyst at Accenture as a fresh graduate 3 months ago but this is not really the role I was looking for. I have quite a lot of experience in diversity and inclusion related themes. Any leads/suggestions/advice would be appreciated!

Not going to get into details, but I have tons of debt (some medical from family) that are weighing heavily on me.

Do you think diversity training actually works? I can't tell if it's just a way to tick a liability box or if it's actually effective.

Will identifying as having a disability negatively impact my chances of getting a job? I used to never disclose my disability (it’s not physically apparent) but I’m wondering if I should start being more open about it.

Hi. I’m an exempt employee (my boss’s only W-2 employee) and have two weeks of PTO. He’s making me use that for my physical therapy and doctors appointments, and I just got diagnosed with something related to my I jury (not work related) that could qualify me for temporary disability. How do I approach this and can I get fired for this? I have to take care of my body! And he’s insanely rigid, cheap, stubborn, and at this point I don’t even think he cares about me. I’m a very hard worker!

Hi everyone! AS2 here—

I need some advice about diversity and inclusion here at Deloitte. I’m having a hard time adjusting to my current team being that I work with all men and I am the only minority on the team. I’ve tried to connect more with my senior, but he talks to me like I’m stupid or something and I cannot stand it. Every time I ask them a question or for more guidance, the senior acts like they don’t understand. However, he doesn’t have an issue assisting the AS1 on the team. Cont ..

I’m a Canadian citizen but I never lived in Canada.
Currently in 🇨🇭 and planning to move to Canada for the experience. However it seems that the salaries are super low compared to the US or Switzerland. Is that because of the high taxes? Does $82k in Vancouver/Calgary allows you to live decently or am I gonna struggle? Current TC USD92k (CHF83k) and it would take a big hit by moving to Canada. But at the same time 🇨🇭 is one of the most expensive countries in the world.

I just got an email that an old boss jumped off the building and committed suicide yesterday afternoon. He had a successful law practice and appeared (outwardly) to be fine. This triggered a lot of thoughts about how unhappy I have been my entire time in this profession, how unhappy everybody I’ve encountered has also been (against or working with), and how much more stressful and difficult it is grinding out a living every year practicing law. Suggestions for healthy ways to cope with stress?

I think there was a blue wave but a massive voter suppression by the administration, they pressurized USPS to deliberately delay deliveries of mail ballot in key battleground states. This should be investigated! (Don’t ask me for evidence go find it for yourself)

Could I pull off asking my manager from J1 for approval of freelancing on the side? It’s quite common anyway for designers I think. And then my j2 can be “freelance” even though it’s full time?

I feel like all the walls are closing in. My bosses at work like me a lot, but I have come to hate my job. I’m at a bad place in my marriage as well. I just want to call it quits and sit in a room...

What would you do? I was recently reached out to by an exec I worked for at another agency. He’s at a new agency and looking for an EA to assist him, the new president and another exec. However the agency itself is not doing well- no new biz wins, big layoffs recently, terrible reviews on Glassdoor. I like my current agency enough, however, very much don’t like the 2 execs I assist. Would you go rather work for good execs at a bad agency? Or stay at a decent agency but awful execs?

I am looking to talk to someone who is a P.Eng and a PMP. Please comment and I will DM you. Thanks in advance.

I’ve been given a D&I project for my firm which is ideal because it has always been a passion of mine. In the process I’ve noticed that no one is actually committed to this cause. How do you make management see that it’s not just about writing a check?

“I must honestly confess that I go through moments of disappointment when I have to recognize that there aren’t enough white persons in our country who are willing to cherish democratic principles over privilege. But I am grateful to God that some are left.” This quote is from MLK in 1968 about how he sensed the movement was losing the battle for the soul of the nation.

Just received demographic results from a diversity survey. 75% response rate. Not sure if diversity percentage should use the total headcount or total number of people who responded to the survey. I'm looking for guidance. Thanks!

Feeling very frustrated right now…company talks a big game about DEI internally, while requiring new hires to move to Texas/Arizona, while the company’s PAC donates to politicians pushing extremist, regressive, anti-woman and anti-LGBT laws

They want to encourage us to “bring our whole self to work” while putting us in situations where we can’t be our whole self.

Anyone else in a similar place, feeling discouraged? Any tips?

Hello!

I am being tapped to translate documents at work. I’ve done spot translation audits, and 1 larger Quality assurance document earlier this year, but was recently contacted about a potential large-scale translation initiative for next year.

Has anyone been compensated for these sorts of projects that would be “out of scope” for their role? How do you go about asking for compensation? Have any of you spun out and created translation service side-gigs?

How do you deal with your “mentor” being threatened by your performance and gatekeeping information from you? Then turning around and giving you shit for not knowing things… but they don’t tell you anything and there is no way for you to know. My learning and development is being hindered and I’ve felt this for a long time, but coworker just confirmed this is the case. Now that I know I’m not “crazy” for thinking this, how should I approach this?

My company has ERGs and one of them is pretty large and includes a lot of demographics. Within it, people are starting to kind of form their own subgroups (like based on office location or country-specific ethnicity). Does anyone have any thoughts around what would be appropriate for DEI practitioners to be aware of when serving these populations?

God imagine working DEI at Twitter 😂😅
