Support for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) measures in companies is on the decline, The Wall Street Journal reported.
DEI is on a downward trend in corporate America, with many workers saying they are apathetic about a diverse workplace, according to the WSJ. The debate over DEI efforts in the workplace has been brewing since before the Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that colleges and universities cannot use race-based admission standards.
“There are people who say, ‘I really wish we were more diverse,’ and I’ve also seen people say, ‘Stop being so woke,’” Sarah Sharp, a vice president of human resources at Clayton, a home builder based out of Tennessee, told the WSJ.
Only 32% of workers believed that working at an ethnically diverse place was “very important” to them, while 38% said it was “not too/not at all important,” according to a Pew Research Center survey. The same poll found that 26% of workers find an “equal mix of men and women” to be “very important” in the workplace, while 44% said it is not.

The attitude from companies towards DEI funding is also changing, according to the WSJ. A Gallup survey of 140 human resource chiefs revealed that 59% plan to increase their DEI budgets in the next year, while 84% had responded they would in 2022.
Jonathan McBride, who is in charge of DEI at Heidrick & Struggles, a recruiting firm, is concerned about the impact the Supreme Court ruling on race-based admissions in higher education could have on companies, according to the WSJ.

“If you say this about college admission, what about hiring?” McBride told the outlet.
Some companies have faced backlash for their efforts to cater to the LGBTQ community.
Bud Light sales dropped 31% since mid-May after the company partnered with Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender social media influencer, in April. Target and Kohl’s brands took a hit over LGBTQ merchandise in June, with Target losing $15 billion in market cap value and Kohl’s losing 20% of its share price.
Heidrick & Struggles and Clayton did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that fiat currencies across the globe, including the U.S. Dollar, are under attack. Paper money is losing its value, translating into insane inflation and less value in our life’s savings.

Whether Central Bank Digital Currencies replace current fiat currencies or not, precious metals are poised to retain or even increase in value. This is why central banks and mega-asset managers like BlackRock are moving much of their holdings to precious metals.

Their faith-driven values allow them to help Americans protect their life’s savings without the gimmicks used by most precious metals companies.

What a farce —- endless “articles” on DEI, yet for some unfathomable reason it is never mentioned, never clarified, that DEI sections and departments and divisions are COMMUNIST POLITICAL MINDER SYSTEMS —– does the University of Utah, a relatively small university, really require 32 people in their DEI section?!?!
Ditto all the other colleges, universities, library systems and school systems, the Pentagon, etc., across North America?!
Is this a forbidden topic?!
Like RISE IMAGES on Jan. 6, 2021 —- it must NEVER be mentioned?!
Like BLM being the rebranded Maoist group, LIBERTY ROAD —– it must NEVER be mentioned?!!
Surely everyone isn’t that retarded that they fail to recognize political minder systems —– the first construct always put in place by communist rulers!!!
dei is fake jobs for fake people to create fake culture for fake ideology.
DEI had to develop an an industry because all the colleges and universities began offering degrees in subjects like Black Studies, Woman’s Studies, Hispanic Studies, New to the menus LGBTQ Studies. Now after you pay a quarter to a half million dollars to some, “Institute of Higher Learning, what job or position are you qualified for that will add value to society? How will you create, “the greater good?” Well without DEI departments at all the colleges, government agencies, and corporations you would have noting to market that anyone would pay good money for.
I actually had a relative promoted to a management position after several years at a company who thought on her first day as a new manager she would bring a treat to her new employees. She chose to bring Home Made Chocolate Chip Cookies. After all who can turn down a chocolate chip cookie. For some unexplained reason I think she missed the memo that Chocolate Chip Cookies were raciest and offering them on your first day as a supervisor proved you were a raciest. A complaint was filed with her HR department and was referred to the DEI department the result she was terminated. When I suggested she get legal help she tried and was told she had a solid case but in the liberal city she was employed the chance of getting a judie that would give her case a fair hearing was slim to zero to loose a case on this basis might hurt her career for a long time. DEI served the greater good. I hope some day we can file a class action suit to recover every dime of government money that went into the DEI scam and I hope we can extract payment from every ederal, state, and Locial person who voted for them.
