Only 10.2% feel truly recognized in inclusive workplaces despite DEI push

DEI support is rising, but recognition still fails most

A CultureMonkey report finds a stark gap between diversity efforts and real workplace recognition: just 10.2% of employees say they feel truly recognized in inclusive environments. While many feel supported by DEI initiatives, persistent issues like biased promotions and unequal pay undermine fairness. The report urges companies to replace symbolic gestures with transparent, merit-based compensation and recognition systems.
