I work at Lowe's, and here in the Deepest South, we have a wildly diverse staff. Black, gay, Hispanic, kids on their first job, old folks staying busy, all kinds. They do seem to lean heavily on hiring vets, but that falls under DEI.

I should note: Our CEO is black. Don't know anything about the guy, but I do like listening to him talk. I don't get any sense of BS or fake corpo talk. Only been there 2 months but I'm a little taken aback by the lack of corporate BS. LOL, it ain't exactly heaven, but better than expected.

The retailer also will no longer participate in an annual survey by the Human Rights Campaign that measures workplace inclusion for LGBTQ+ employees, and will also stop sponsoring and participating in events, such as festivals and parades, that are outside of its business areas.

I don't have a problem with this. Aren't we always bitching about rainbow capitalism? I'd rather a company drop it than fake it.

Plus their products are garbage. I had curtain rods from them such that the metal snapped without even significant strain. Had to replace after two years, was a huge waste of time and money, although these umbra brand it's are so much better.

I also would like to see what these companies actual statements are. Because a few companies are 'rolling back dei' in that they're just renaming the program and rewording the mission statements. Like it's just for show because a diverse workforce is extremely profitable.
