Diversity on Wall Street (DOWS)???
I have been seeing this organization throughout the internet a lot. What exactly is this? One of my contacts in the industry told me that a lot of kids write this on their resumes as "Associates"?? I have no idea why they would offer such a position like this for this diversity org I suppose? also, they have like a big groupme chat where literally 80% of them are non-DEI candidates and they have just been exploiting the DEI initiatives for no reason, putting this bs on their LinkedIn, resume, etc. Can someone pls explain what tf is going on with these diversity orgs that come out of nowhere??/
Goated, love to connect
See how they censored my comment as it questioned the privilege of white Beckys’. WSO is woke now. Where in the constitution does it say that we need to have 50% gender target! These talentless Beckys’ are one trick ponies; when you question their work performance, they will cry misogyny or guilt trip white men in power
Who cares? DEI in itself is unethical, so I see no issue with non-DEI candidates taking advantage of the system that actively works to disadvantage them.
Please Google de jure segregation.
De jure segregation also was unethical, and was unconstitutional.
But this led to a head start for some ethnicities and groups while it left others behind.
The reality is that relics and badges from parts of history many don't want to discuss continue to be prevalent today, and particularly in the workplace.
Let’s discuss. It was racial segregation and yes, some racial diversity initiatives are warranted. However, at some point, people with vested interests started deprioritizing racial equity and made gender parity their main goal. Hence, you have a bastardized outcome where white women although being most privileged members of a white western society have access to 50% of A&A seats and promotions. Since when did white women have to face apartheid or segregation, or do we have women only ghettos? Considering white women a minority / diversity is an insult to the challenges faced by generations of racial communities. White men and women both are subject to similar socio-economic hurdles then why do we not consider white men as diversity. In short, there is no room for any gender quotas.
This.
White guy running it and pushing the non-DEI candidates to lie. UNC is over!
That pretty much sums up IB recruitment and promotions. White guy running it prefers gender targets over racial diversity with the goal to benefit white women. That’s the most digestible form of diversity in the corridors of power. Look at annual reports, they only refer to gender targets when it comes to diversity while for marketing they will parade mostly PoC
Def not… he’s cracked and will prob be going to MF after EB stint… he’s just playing the cards he was dealt
well fuck guys we better pack it up, prospect in IB has spoken the kids cracked and will go to a megafund. Jokes aside, not sure how you can make such a claim when there’s like 130 MF spots in the country a year — just GS/EVR analyst classes exceed this number by a lot.
.
another "associates" here..
You have until January 20th, enjoy gay communism while it lasts
Will Trump pass legislation to make gender targets illegal? Elon got rid of DEI references from Tesla’s annual reporting
With a Republican trifecta for the next two years at least, who knows what could get passed. What’s good is he won’t need to rely on executive orders to make changes. Diversity quotas of all kind are opposed by most Americans, so I wouldn’t be surprised.
Don’t hold your breath.
The hardest part is getting in and getting promotions. The rest is easy because you are competing against DEI folks who are absolutely incapable and "R word," otherwise they could have gotten the job without lower standards.
Promotions are increasingly becoming an issue for juniors as banks are enforcing 50% gender targets as a base. All female A&A are guaranteed promotion up to VP as long they do bare minimum
papa trump will abolish DEI inshalla.The age mediocrity is over. Bring bank merit, excellency, and IQ Rawwwrrrr
If only they had the emotional intelligence to not advertise it on CV
Yeah but the implementation of DEI is far worse in Canada
UNC is paradise?
When perverse incentive structures are imposed, it’s not surprising that people will ‘exploit’ them.
Had coffee with DEI lead at one of the top BBs in NY. She confided that only diversity senior executives care about, due to charter agreements with governments in US / Europe, are women, blacks and hispanics. The over emphasis on gender is due to femi-n*zis in government. No excuse for Republicans not to abolish DEI.
Go DOGE on DOWS
I only hire white straight men to fight against DEI
.
White supremacists and radical feminists have one thing in common and that is low iq. Both are sheep, former only wants to hire white males and latter only white females. Two sides of the same coin.
GroupMe is flooded with any and everyone (mostly non-DEI candidates) but they dropped pretty much every application and timeline in there. Couldn’t complain during my SA recruitment tbh
