Target, along with Walmart and other big brands, is shutting down most of its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs for employees, customers, and business partners. This decision follows an executive order from former President Trump, which has led to widespread reevaluation of DEI initiatives.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The withdrawal from DEI initiatives by major companies like Target is concerning. In the tech industry, diversity fosters innovation and leads to more inclusive products. Removing these programs could negatively impact the work environment and customer experience by reducing diverse perspectives and inclusive practices. While compliance with federal directives can be necessary, companies must balance this with their commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace.
