Summary

Meta announced the termination of its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, including hiring practices and supplier diversity initiatives.

Internal DEI teams and equity training programs will be disbanded, despite Meta’s earlier achievements in boosting representation.

The move follows Meta’s recent alignment with Donald Trump, including a $1M donation to his inauguration.

Critics link this decision to growing right-wing backlash against DEI efforts. Similar rollbacks have occurred at companies like Walmart and Ford.

    You may have wondered are these companies actually inclusive, or are they just faking it for PR points. Well now you know. Meta is doing whatever it takes to maximize profits.
