Demand to fill Diversity, Equity and Inclusion roles is hitting new lows amid corporate America’s struggle to stay afloat in the Biden economy.
According to Jason Hanold, the chief executive of Hanold Associates Executive Search, searches for chief diversity officers are down 75 percent over the past year, hitting the lowest he has seen in his 30-year recruiting career.
“Some of America’s largest corporations, like Netflix, Disney — which has many more self-made problems besides diversity, equity, and inclusion — and Warner Bros. Discovery, have announced that their CDOs were leaving the companies. Many employees who work in jobs related to the CDO have been laid off, and new complaints by employees of their employers caving to the woke mob and going overboard have led to scaling back of DEI commitments,” RedState reported.
From The Gateway Pundit:
The Supreme Court recently striking down affirmative action in college admissions also got the attention of many corporate executives. Some CDOs felt like corporate brass did not want to change hiring or promotion protocols and were told that they were brought on to improve talent. And in the wake of many people who have called out DEI practices for also being discriminatory, the rush towards DEI has not been a permanent one.
