thoughts on this inclusion thing? As a minority it seems to be a publicity stunt... for the pictures and social media posts... Just confused about why we are still talking about what needs to get done

Female here and I hate to say it! But whenever I’m pull to a new project I secretly hope I don’t get a female lead. 😞 I had some interesting experiences with women leads, which it does not apply to all women!, but I feel a bit hesitant and I feel is ptsd lol how can I overcome this mentality?! I’m pro women and equally etc etc but I often rather deal with a dude lead Bc we women are so hard on each other. Smh 🤦🏽‍♀️

What are some racial/gender/age based micro aggressions you’ve experienced in the workplace?

Let’s start by posting age, location gender (a selfie if you want!) I’m 30/M from nyc looking for something more serious these days in terms of dating..

Everyone talks about diversity all the time, but I'll just say, I've never once seen a news anchor who wasn't abnormally pretty (girls OR guys). Just sayin' is all

How did you begin to implement equity and inclusion into your organization?

Hi All,

Can some1 tell me which company is better wells fargo or Natwest in terms of wlb, year on year appraisal, work culture and diversity candidate?

Thank You in advance

I have taught Pk-2 (full time aides) & SpEd inclusion K-8 with parapros. This will be my first time alone in a classroom of 27 3rd graders. What is your favorite project to do in 3rd??

Anyone relocated from Toronto to London recently (within the last 2 years or so)? My partner and I are contemplating the move...we want more diversity in our lives and want to work to live, not live to work as we do here in our respective consulting jobs. Folks who have made the switch, would you be open to sharing your experience? TIA

Kind of a quick rant. I did a quick search through some firms websites because I am thinking of switching jobs. It is definitely clear most firms still do not embrace diversity. I know diverse applicants must be just as qualified! So what is keeping attorneys of color out?? It’s so discouraging.

Thanks for making this bowl all gender inclusive. The other bowl simply was outdated and lacked any kind of diversity whatsoever at all.

Gay man who works in a large org that is big on diversity and inclusion efforts. I’d say about 50-60% of people (at all levels, across all age groups and races) list their gender pronouns in email signature. I list mine because I see it as a way to show support for colleagues who may not be cisgender. If anyone else works in the same type of environment, do you infer anything about colleagues who choose not to list their gender pronouns? (such as they are homo/trans phobic?)

Lots of right wing hysteria about liberals trying to engineer equality of outcome to correct sexual/racial inequities (in higher ed, for example). I think we all want socioeconomic, gender and racial barriers to opportunities to be addressed, but no significant number of people really believe in equality of outcome right? This is just a straw man argument.

Have efforts to increase diversity in real estate careers been successful, or do you think there is still a long way to go?

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?

Looking for idea driven copy writers, ACD and CD level for health & wellness accounts. Not typical pharma projects, with lots of opportunities to work on meaningful assignments that address diversity and inequities.

Hello all,

I am a recent college grad that has been struggling to transition & find a good entry QA role. Does anyone know a remote entry level Quality Assurance Analyst or QA Specialist roles hiring? I live in Washington, DC so I can be on site as well. TIA and open to any advice or referrals as well!!

I’ve started a new job and though they have a community, it has been stagnant for a long time. Would you face the change directly with a “we’re back!” style post, or just increase the activity without acknowledging the absence?

Anyone else get ruined by the metro delay this morning?

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration. Some of these matters are multi-plaintiff and multi-defendant cases, but none are class actions. This does not include any matters I am handling in the charge stage or in pre-litigation. Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

Thinking of heading to Maui (for the first time) for thanksgiving and seeking recommendations for a hotel (considering Ritz but open to others) and things to do. TIA!!

As a first year - if you like working with a particular partner a lot, is it a good idea to just volunteer for all the work they have for you to do, or is it better to try to get a balance of different work from the practice group? Not trying to come off like Incrediboy.

A colleague just "shamed me" about the size of my engagement ring. My fiance is a wonderful, hardworking guy who bought me a beautiful ring. I'd take a great guy over a large ring any day.

Ex healthcare workers in Tech/Sales Engineering/ Healthcare consulting;
I have my masters in nursing/FNP (1 yr) making <K70 (Indiana) due to low patient census in my role. No desire for a different FNP job nor to return to bedside nursing (RN 5 yrs). I have heard of some individuals with remote positions making >K100 with little to no experience in tech or consulting after doing a boot camp or cert?
If you pivoted; What’s your current role/ Income & what did you do to complete the transition?

Not too many Oracle SCM cloud consulting openings out there.. especially in Canada. Any leads anyone?

4YOE @Amazon & trying to lateral to a similar role @FAANG. Have my undergrad GPA (3.8/4) on resume from top 15 school but colleague says to take it off (looks silly). If it’s a good school & high GPA, why ever take it off your resume? Even if 10 YOE...can’t hurt?

I've been exploring exit opportunities for a few months and still holding out for the right opportunity. However, I've had A LOT of recruiters reach out to me for positions that are way below my current salary. They do the whole "your background and expertise is exactly what we're looking for" then turn around and offer a salary range that is 20k below my current level. My resume clearly says I've got 10yrs experience and an MBA. I **don't think* I should be getting offers of 80k-100k

What is a typical cash/equity mix of TC at a series C startup ?

anyone here a conservative and a member of a political organization/non-profit in the NYC area? Want to be active but it’s hard to find latinos who affiliate with the republican party. Don’t come @ me

Excited for the HLN Leadership Essentials!

Damn this is dead. How sad is that

How do you answer this question “What race are you?” Seems simple but as someone of Latin American geographic decent it seems more complex than Asian, black, native America, or White. No brown box !

So happy to see the Latinos finally represent!

Tax sucks. Bleah.

When is the ALPFA convention? Did it already happen? Sorry I'm new here.

To all my fellow accountants, follow my IG account @be.audit.you.can.be for some great accounting humor! I just started and will be updating daily. Who doesn't need a quick giddy up? :)

Wow so dead! I guess we really are the minority 😕

Anyone else here from a shithole country? I’m proudly Dominican 🇩🇴 😁

I’m looking for a Spanish speaking auditor for a Fortune 500 company. Awesome international travel if anyone is interested.... TIA!

How’s attending the ALPFA conference in Vegas?

I would think Miami, LA, Chicago, NYC. Anyone attend the ALPFA convention?

Anyone else have their parents and tias try to set you up with everyone?

How is this bowl not lit?

Is anyone here actively involved in ALPFA and if so, would you recommend it? What have you been able to accomplish through your membership/participantion. Ultimately, I just get the sense that its for college students to network and try landing their first job.

Hii, anyone going to the ALPFA? Convention this year? Or went to it last year? Tips?

I have never pulled the "racism" card ever in my career but do any of you feel like you constantly have to be better/more intelligent/and work harder than any of your white counterparts just to be acknowledged? After 15 years of a successful career in public acctg, I still feel like I am constantly getting the "book" thrown at me by superiors and clients as well. Its getting old....

What up ya'll - let's start getting more people in here. Curious what your experience has been like as a minority at your firm.
