I think equal consideration should be given regardless of race and think DEI departments can be forces of good and improve organizations. However, my limited experience with them is I can’t figure out their data driven decisions. For example, my org is 25% African American and 70% female and DEI gave a presentation on underrepresentation in the workplace and how we need to shift hiring to increase African American and female new hires. When asked to square this goal with our current employment demographics they made some hand waving about “looking into the data” and when the questioner refined their question to say the data already is gathered and seems clear the DEI head didn’t answer and just moved on. Not sure what their goal is.
