It’s definitely an individual office thing. I’ve seen firms in different cities have different representation so if it’s something you want to see speak up. Maybe they just haven’t had anyone push for it yet

Each office or region is in charge of attendance. Your local Unity group will make that call, depending on interest, whether to attend. Sometimes it makes more sense to let everyone do their own thing (i.e. not be affiliated with EY)

Yea. It’s up to the local Unity group and OMP. And it’s a budget issue too. Someone has to pay. Out last OMP could have cared less about LGBT issues (or maybe our Unity group never asked) but our current OMP really supports our Unity group

Are you active in the Unity group? Ask the leader. I’m an exec sponsor in an office and our group did it one year and decided against it the next.
