Those in FDD, why do you like it?
I got a call from HR and offer discussion was over couple of weeks back and still waiting for them to send me final mail to release offer. May I know if they take this much time to release offer, when I did a follow up call after 10 days they said they are waiting for some approval to release offer.
Any ideas i still have chances to get offer? BNY Mellon

I wonder if people would post crap like this if they were using their real name...
I think he wants to slide in elsewhere too
White voices are needed to make other white people listen.

It absolutely does matter. That’s the type of messed up world we live in. That we need straights to speak up for LGBTQ, men to speak up for women, and whites to speak up for minorities for change to come and for people to PAUSE.

Now that I have your attention. I have a real question and it's a tough question. And I would appreciate the thoughts. Please be respectful and as honest as possible. Posted earlier without the catchy headline and got no engagement.
Not sure how other firms are handling this situation, but PwC is encouraging all white people reach out to their black colleagues. There's an implied sentiment that essentially if you don't reach out, you do not care about them. Based on the meetings and comments and discussions made I've had the following reactions:
1. it sets a precedent that black people are less than white people b/c they can not handle tough times on their own
2. it sets a precedent that black people NEED white people to be able to think through things / understand how to feel
3. it sets a precedent that black people are unable to work without the 'white man' trying to solve for them
4. Many are not reaching out for good, but rather to clear their 'white guilt'
5. This is to satisfy white peoples need to clear their mind, not taking into consideration what our black friends / colleagues want or need.

OP: I actually don’t disagree with you much on #4&5. Main issue was just with #1-3. Hey look at us making progress. 🍺
M1: thank you for your input too!

If they really want the Bureau of Land Management that bad, let 'em have it. 🤷♂️

I agree with you. Most don’t understand the issues and are simply calling people who disagree with them racists. Like in this bowl...

Agreed. It’s time we start something new
