[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, yes I know it's about diversity. But it still still sounds wrong to me for clients to demand quotas, when employers aren't supposed to use them. What I was thinking of were the days when men would request a male doctor (or whites would request a white doctor) because they assumed a male or white doctor would be more competent. If a man came into the ER today with a broken arm and insisted on seeing a male doctor, or a white doctor, for treatment, would the hospital honor the request?[/quote] I am a black woman who is a COO. I am also a former corporate lawyer. I absolutely demand that our law firms are diverse. If I'm paying $1000 an hour, you better best believe that there should be a woman and person of color on that team. I know how hard it is for women and POC at big law. I know they are just as smart, but don't always get the respect or opportunity. [/quote]
