Discussion: US DEI - what impacts have you seen since 2020?

Despite a mountain of information available about the lack of DEI in most companies and the structures in place that prevent improvement in these areas, many organizations only attempted to start engaging in the these areas in the wake of George Floyd. Frustrating, but better late than never, fine.

As easy money started drying up from the Fed last year, many companies started tightening pocketbooks and eliminating jobs and even entire functions, including previously labeled "critical" and "foundational" roles like DEI.

It would be interesting to hear the size of investments made by different companies, the function and purview given or assigned to these roles, and hear about what impact they have made--and hear thoughts on the reasons for successes or failures in different areas.
