Like no one should be spamming the firm with their political views….

This is indicative of the reality that huge rainmakers feel comfortable saying whatever they want, wherever they want. It will be winter in hell if W&C does anything with him.

like

Honestly I’d just as quickly assume it was the end of times if W&C decided to do anything about his statements

Many if not most firms have a few conservative oddball/Trumpy partners who aren’t pushed out because they bring in a lot of money. It doesn’t reflect the culture of the firm *that* much because most people openly think their politics are bonkers and in a large firm you’re going to have some some people who deviate from the core culture.

like

Fair enough; though the people I’m thinking of are very vocal about their views and post a lot on Twitter and whatnot. Emailing blasting the firm is a step farther, but for the same reasons (it’s just one tolerable anomalous nutjob) I don’t think it reflects that much on W&C that he hasn’t been pushed out.

The truth is that he could probably be outwardly racist and send an email with racial epithets and the firm would not do anything

My company is in need of a update online, could use your opinions! We need to better showcase our culture (caring, supportive, fun, intelligent IT industry leaders) as well as diversity. We are predominantly white still but making strides to improve here. What’s the best way to approach? I don’t want to seem disingenuous or that we are singling out our diverse employees (asking for photos). We have a remote and on-site workforce about 350+ EEs. Non white EEs make up about 35% of the company rn.
