Where does your DEI team sit in your organization? I've seen them in the people team, reporting directly to the CEO, even landing in the marketing or social impact departments. Curious how you're structured and the costs/benefits associated with each structure.

Ours has always been in HR/people. They do trainings in the place of various HR trainings so it makes sense for them to be there. But I'm curious if they can be more effective elsewhere?

In my mind, DEI should be an independent auditor of the organization and it goes way beyond just people, which is why I generally disagree with it being in the HR function.

I've seen it sit with HR mostly, more as a sub function than an actual department...I think it's interesting that there's those that report to CEO but tbh, no CEO where I've worked, ever has prioritised DEI sadly

That's unfortunate, and I hope you get to work somewhere that truly values DEI someday soon! To me, reporting into the CEO demonstrates its importance as being on par with finance/sales/etc

Hi Folks - Does anyone have insights on the interview structure for consultant level (summer internship) in London?

Would it be fun solo? Any other places I should go instead?

I currently work at a large research institution and am in the process of getting retroactively reclassified to a new title (Long story but my PI is cheap and routinely pays ppl the bare minimum so now the Union is helping me w/ a retro reclass.) Reclass can take 2 - 6 months to process. Meanwhile, I am interviewing for industry job. If I get an industry job, what do I do if my reclass isn’t processed yet? I want the title and the money owed which may be about $15000- 20000.
