Pros

Some great employees who are hard workers that don’t get the recognition they deserved.

Cons

It’s disheartening to witness a pattern where layoffs seem to disproportionately impact Black women and other people of color especially in spaces that publicly champion diversity, equity, and inclusion. When talented, high-performing professionals are repeatedly among the first to go, it forces us to ask: Is DEI truly embedded in your values, or is it a performance for public relations?
