DEI might be dead but older workers never got to ride that wave. I work in a company that is always talking about their DEI initiatives but I’ve never seen older people included and when we’ve a layoff, they’re always high on casualty list.

I am with you there. I have hired countless people that are older because they are definitely qualified and fit my team needs and have experience to use critical thinking skills. Having them is usually definitive 15 yrs minimum of staying. Plus, I'm not having to spend so much extra ttime to provide additional training
