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!

Total headcount. But 75% is awesome

Thank you!

An issue we had at my org was not counting data for those that chose not to identify gender or race. So a lot of responses were thrown out!

Agree that using only survey responses for diversity could falsify/ make it seem like there is more than there is!

It makes sense to use "X% of headcount identify as... " vs "X% of respondants identify as..."

This response is purely from a statistical point of view. It is suggested that you use all the staff as this would give a more accurate view of the organization because if you use only those who responded this could bias your results to those individuals who self identified.

Unpopular opinion: 2,000 hours is way too high of a benchmark to be eligible for a bonus. Unless like 300+ non-billable hours count towards it (maybe half of that be pro bono hours and the other half be diversity, recruiting, etc), 2000 is way too much.

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
