Disheartening Workplace Culture and Management

3yThank you for sharing your perspective. I’m sorry to read you left us disappointed.
It would be impossible for me to adequately convey how much thought and careful planning go into the difficult decision to let employees go. Saying goodbye to colleagues and friends is really hard and it’s important to note that we support every terminated employee with severance and career placement assistance.
To be very clear, we have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination of any kind. We encourage all employees to participate in anti-discrimination and inclusion training throughout the year to help ensure a safe and productive workplace. Additionally, we are launching a “Courageous Conversations” series to empower and equip employees with tools to contribute to an inclusive culture. We’ll continue to implement new initiatives as our Diversity & Inclusion function evolves under our new Director of D&I hired earlier this year.
My door is open to you if there’s anything else you’d like to share. You can reach me at emessier@forrester.com.
Thank you.
