Black employees at Peloton are hammering the company with questions about being paid less

became a pandemic status symbol among homebound techies and bankers, vowed to spend $100 million to fight systemic racism as part of its"Peloton Pledge" in 2020. Among the many bike workouts available on its service are sessions like"Speak Up," a 30-minute class that combines high-intensity exercise with commentary about racial injustice.

"None of it is genuine," one Black employee told Insider in a conversation over a messaging app."The Black dollar is powerful, and Peloton sees the benefit with aligning themselves with the BLM/Anti Asian Hate stance, but does little to address inequity and diversity concerns internally." According to the company's annual proxy statement, roughly half of Peloton employees are hourly workers who do things like deliver and set up its $1,500 and $2,500 internet-connected exercise bikes.

"Although we are a progressive company," workers at Peloton are still"very much in the dark about what people on their team are making or even a general range of what they should be making," a departing employee wrote on the channel, urging colleagues to share their pay information. "I would say this is a two-part thing. I think Peloton is just extremely cheap when it comes to their internal employees regardless of race," a current Black employee told Insider. "But when it comes to your front-line workers, people who are in your warehouses, people who are your member-support agents who are taking these calls from actual Peloton bike riders — a majority of those teams are African American.
