No chance. None.

So let’s say I go really wide and guesstimate 2k “Officials and Managers” in the US.<br /><br />If IPG hired a mere 27 (TWENTY DAMN SEVEN!) ethnic (not white female) minorities between 2005 and today, that would account for the following points they claim:<br /><br />“Total minorities make up 19% of US "Officials and Managers," an increase of 94% since 2005.”<br /><br />“The "Professional" talent base is 26% minority, an increase of 35% since 2005.”<br /><br />We’ll never know the real numbers though, because they’re fudging. We can only guess. We can only see the results of their lackluster diversity issues, which is losing two more accounts today. <br /><br />They need to release the actual and exact diversity hiring numbers, not vague percentages, so they can clean up their house. <br />accounts sidenoreply@blogger.com
