>Some have sunset employee resource groups
Worked at a place with ERGs. I had never heard of them before. In our company wiki, they were listed as places where people of the protected group could "share career opportunities" and help each other out. Seemed mega illegal to me. I asked HR how is this not discriminatory, and they said anyone could join the group, not just people of the protected group. But nowhere was that written down or communicated. Pretty sure I was put on a "list" for that line of questioning.
- Macha 4y agoERGs in the companies I've been in has been a way to redirect the organising types into something that is probably cost-neutral after considering the PR wins rather than have them focus on union-type things they might otherwise get into that are just straight up cost to the company.
