If he wants programs that pay for scholarhsips for minorities with money from JP, I don’t care. I don’t own any of its stock or use its banks or investment services.

He’s not an elected public official.

I think he means well...I think he’s left of center but not bat#### crazy left of center.

And I think he’s waking up to realities more and more.

He’s one of FEW that basically told people who don’t like tarriffs to go to heck and he said they could be helpful.

More than a lot of businessmen on the right said about it.

People’s opinions evolved. Hopefully his will keep evolving in the right direction.

He looked at the bottom line and decided the cost of DEI was just too high for the benefits gained. If Harris had won, he would be all for DEI.

“The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind”

People’s opinions evolved. Hopefully his will keep evolving in the right direction.

George Wallace was the liberal reform guy in his first political race. He lost. He then became a firebrand segregationalist to win office.

ALL of the “Diversity is Our Strength” advocates can NEVER answer the question of how diversity will make a sports team better. It has always been a big lie.

no doubt, 95% of this corporate DEI bullshit was fascist bullying by the fascist biden administration ... now that the fascist gas pedal has been eased off, corporate DEI is unraveling faster than a child’s first knitting project being tugged on by a house cat ...

He was all for it, but he was always against it b/c it is extra bureaucracy, but will not eliminate it completely.

Clear, right?

He noticed the wind has shifted.

“Many of these retreats were influenced by a recent US Supreme Court decision on affirmative action at colleges and universities, a ruling that prompted conservative groups to ramp up their efforts to eliminate diverse hiring practices.”

James and Bragg opened that door when they went after Trump’s bankers in a criminal case that has no standing and will be overturned on appeal. Wall Street doesn’t want that to happen to them.

Either embrace the meritocracy or lose.

He wants to make statements and be believed. Tell everyone, who put you up to it? Name names.

“””If Harris had won, he would be all for DEI.””””

If she won he would be FORCED to implement DEI.

Is it just me or have I noticed fewer mixed race couples in tv ads since Trump took office?

Appears that Dimon is not a very strong leader as he bent to the DEI idiots and now that it is getting out of favor with those in power, he is moving in the other direction. Kinda like sticking one’s finger in the air to see which way the wind is blowing. No core to that man.

I thought he played a major role in instituting DEI in the first place:

Dimon still a fan

At JPMorgan, the nation’s largest bank, CEO Jamie Dimon is a big fan of DEI.

It’s plastered all over the company’s website, which touts the stat that “58% of new US hires are racially or ethnically diverse.”

Dimon, famously, was photographed taking a knee when visiting a branch office during the social-justice riots after the death of George Floyd, seemingly in support of the radical Black Lives Matter movement.

Yet people at the bank assure me the company has been weaning itself from the most far-reaching DEI interpretations.

Dimon ordered a ­review of DEI policies after the SCOTUS affirmative action decision to ensure that hiring quotas don’t exist.

The company seeks a diverse workforce that tries to match the racial and gender composition of the population in areas where it does business and then picks the best people.

There are no quotas.

That’s when I brought up that 58% “diverse” hiring number, which obviously doesn’t match current US demographics and seems very quota-forward.

JPM’s explanation: It represents the population of urban areas where the bank’s branches are largely located; JPM hires lots of tech people who are often of Asian descent.

Sounds like there might be several expensive discrimination lawsuits against him about to be filed. I don’t think he’s as concerned about right and wrong as much as he is about dollars and cents.

Article:

“Diverse hiring practices” = discrimination against white males.

Yeah—we noticed.
