Toyota curbs DEI policies

CNBC's Becky Quick reports on the latest news.

[Sparta]

Proud of them. This makes me feel better about always buying a Toyota

[ssuwandi]

As they should have done 👍 the purpose of business is Business

[joewest]

They were looking for an excuse to cut it. Starbuck opened the door.

[kenjiterada]

DEI was born around 2010s and died 2024.

[KarenDuncan-os]

One question, please! Is NVIDIA a safe buy to outperform the market this year? I'm tired of these new buys every week, just to make up some assets with a low percentage on my $236k portfolio and try to keep everything around 10%.

[Archeops]

Are we sure Toyota didn't hire Starbuck to just give them an easy way of scrapping DEI?

[alphaization]

Toyota always forges their own pathways

[Teutoburg]

That's good news. I'm shopping for a car rn, and had ruled out toyota because of this. But they're still partners of the WEF, and so is Honda.

[chesstictacs]

That’s why they are the 🐐 GOAT of auto making! Enough is enough. Merit first! Good job Toyota, I love my Camry even more now.

[longbeach]

Can we give Andrew a cold dose of DEI reality and replace him with somebody who checks the boxes?

[manonamission]

fiduciary duty seems orthogonal to DEI

[waxelfoley]

Some of the comments are interesting. People treating Toyota like heros for axing something they chose to do and only stopping because public backlash. It's great they claim they're ending it but they're not getting a congratulations or a cent from me.

[NebjosaMeier]

Are they going to change the us motto from e pluribus unum (out of many, one) to something else? The founding fathers valued diversity back when america was great.

[Ultra_Dark_MAGA_Man]

It's discriminatory. It's divisive. It has no place in the workplace. Good call Toyota.

[goby]

Other than man children screaming over the internet, they had no real reason to shut this down. Hey, i guess if enough people throw a childish tantrum, these corporations will just acquiesce

[bobbymoss]

Hire people based on intelligence and skills, not color and pronouns? No way!

[hugokatz]

Maybe, we should have boycotted Toyota, but I was unaware of this idocy.

[JR-jisx]

Victisism is a real thing out there. NO one owes anyone anything. The system could be more humane but it is what it is. Perhaps learn to work through the system and beat it and not ask the system to carry you. As if you get carried you will never come out of victimhood.
