Joined for the mission, turns out its a front - Anonymous employee PowerToFly Employee Review

The cofounder, who constantly appears on television and writes articles about diversity and inclusion, admitted in our annual sales meeting that she doesn't take cold calls. She then goes on to say that black women are the exception (mentions that you can tell they are black by the way they speak on the call) because she feels she owes them due to her white privilege. **Followed by laugh at those without white privilege** Before creating a company and mission for diversity and inclusivity, you should believe in it. Its 2018, not everyone looks like their ethnicity and she obviously did not know that I am part black. It made my employment there very uncomfortable. I felt if I said anything, then comments like that would be made when I was not in the room? If I don't say anything do they continue to get made in front of me? Unfortunately, this was only one of the inappropriate comments that was made but it really stood out to me. It is a very cliquey company and if you don't fit the mold, you won't be able to last long. I saw several people laid off who didn't fit the mold and it was terrible. The company has a great goal but needs people committed to implementing it internally first before guiding other companies.
