In a statement, the executive leadership team (ELT) expressed belief that 'the world has evolved' since the launch of their DEI campaign in 2019, indicating a significant shift in corporate ideology.
Despite the decision to end their DEI initiatives, Jack Daniel's insists that they will continue efforts to foster an inclusive workspace where 'everyone is welcomed, respected and able to bring their best self to work.'
Robby Starbuck celebrated the announcement as a victory, claiming, 'We are winning and one by one we will bring sanity back to corporate America.'
Critics on social media have described Jack Daniel's decision as 'cringeworthy' and 'pathetic,' highlighting the backlash against the company's reduction of its inclusivity goals.
