I work for a fortune 500 company that has done the same years ago. The idea is that to retain quality employees they need to feel welcome as they are and who they are. Apparently it has been working.

This has nothing to do with wokeness... tattoos has been around for centuries before the term. No one in my company is expecting one to accept people and their personal decisions; simply respect them on a professional level.

To my knowledge there are no qualifications (outside of age and citizenship) to be VP. So I'm not really sure what your point is.

But congrats on letting everyone know you have zero clue of what it takes to be licensed pilot.

I don't mind if flight attendants aren't beautiful. But I do want them to present a neat, professional appearance. United's new policies are a step away from that.

I am more concerned about how competent they are at the job, not how they look, especially looks that are trivial and non-functioning.

Says... you.

Make-up isn't any less "professional" for a man than a woman. Tattoos aren't inherently "unprofessional", either.
