Looking for recommendations on companies that are remote accommodation friendly for people with disabilities. Sadly I am feeling I may need to leave my current role despite having a legitimate medical reason to work remote. I am just floored over the need to even have the conversation and at this point it makes me feel some kind of way about even working where I currently work.

I’m sorry to hear about your current experience. Check out Red Hat - they have a lot of remote positions and committed to disability inclusion. I hope you find something that works for you!

There are so few places hiring remote right now because everyone forced back to office. That being said I do think Amazon still has some fully remote roles so you might try looking on their site to see if they have anything.

Additional Posts in Diversity & Inclusion

My company (biotech start up >50 employees) are looking to collect diversity data about current employees to provide to candidates when they ask about the company as well as to investors. Any thoughts on whether this is industry standard? What roadblocks to be aware of? Advice on how to go about this as meaningfully as possible?

I’m interviewing for a newly created position, Assistant Director of Communications & Outreach in my organization’s DEI office. This is the first interview they have requested after reviewing my writing sample. They didn’t say who specifically I would be interviewing with, but said “members of the DEI staff”, and it will be virtual.

What types of questions outside of my marketing/communications background should I expect?

Latinx - help! We used this term in our diversity spotlight discussing Hispanic Heritage Month. One individual said that in English a group of Latinos would just be Latins to be gender neutral.

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?

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives? I've observed so many corporate versions become an advertising strategy (SM posts, diversity reports) without doing the actual work (increasing representation in senior leadership, salary analyses, having an effective reporting system for bias). Is this just how it is?
