(26 Jun 2020, 10:22 am)Storx Rainbow things are about as corporate you can get in the majority of cases. (this isn't aimed at GNE as it's not them). Lot's of companies think by painting something rainbow and calling it something pride related they're fully diverse etc but it's just totally a gimmick for marketing and policitical reasons and it's boring as hell. The fact some have diverted it and ignored the reason why they've done it this year just sums them up.
That is a bit of a sweeping statement to make. Lots of companies tend to do something for several Internationally or Nationally recognised days and weeks, including pride, so its a bit unfair to state its 'totally a gimmick' and for 'marketing and political reasons'. Of course, it is important that their actions speak as loud as their words.
As well as promoting awareness, I'm not sure how you would know that these companies are not constantly evolving strategies internally and how they operate as an employer? Diversity in the workplace has evolved massively over even my working life, and whilst we're no where near there yet, big change has happened so far through awareness.
