I completed my MBA which was a huge accomplishment. I have been going to school nights while working full-time so it was pretty exhausting. I was hoping for a promotion that I interviewed for around Thanksgiving, but I didn't get it. I'm hopeful that more opportunities are around the corner and that my MBA will give me the edge.

Congratulations on completing your MBA!

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives?

Is this just how it is?

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?

Working at a company and they can’t seem to hold on to their female, black and people of color employees. I blinked and 3 of the people who were in my onboarding class were either fired or they left.

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?
