Disney, Pepsi and General Motors among companies that are silently axing their DEI efforts: Report

Several companies in the US are silently burying their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) efforts, often not making any public announcements about it. This is because they realized that ‘DEI’ is a politically loaded term and is not seen favourably by the newly elected US President Donald Trump who has called such efforts as “radical and wasteful.”

However, this is completely unlike companies like Google, Walmart, Meta and others who have made large public announcements of rolling back their DEI efforts. It goes as far as simply not mentioning anything about this, including in their annual 10-K financial reports filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Companies in the US are not legally mandated to furnish DEI details like this, but were doing it anyway earlier.
