Going Downhill Fast - Brand Manager Thrasio Employee Review

There are a total of 22 Associate Directors and Directors in Brand Management. All are white except one diversity candidate hired in January. If you look on the calendars of our senior director/now VP, you can see that the whole roster of candidates they interview are all Caucasian names. This is absolutely sickening and a perpetuating cycle that stems from an all white recruiting team. I feel deeply uncomfortable at work as a POC and deal with discrimination and micro aggressions on a weekly basis. In full disclosure, a lot of my colleagues are very inclusive. The racism is top down. I’ve noticed the same white men are greeted by our senior director at meetings. He will only highlight their case studies in Spartan monthly meetings and the list goes on. One senior brand manager joined in April. He was fast tracked and promoted twice to a director role in the span of 8 months with no notable wins. No surprise, he’s a white man. With looming layoffs, I would not be surprised if conveniently the few POC are thrown under the bus.
