BAIN & COMPANY RECOGNIZED AS A “TOP 100 INNOVATOR IN DIVERSITY & INCLUSION” BY MOGUL

The firm is ranked as the top consulting firm on the list and #3 overall

BOSTON – Feb. 6, 2018 – Bain & Company has been named a top leader in diversity and inclusion by Mogul, an online technology platform for women, on its “Top 100 Innovator in Diversity & Inclusion” list. The firm, ranked as the top consulting firm and #3 on the list overall, was recognized for its cross-cultural employee mentorship, strong female leadership, community efforts and dedication to diversity at all levels.

“It’s an honor to be acknowledged as an innovator in diversity and inclusion, which are imperative to our success as a firm and anchored in our mission statement. This recognition highlights our commitment to initiatives that ensure we have the right cultural foundation to guarantee that a broad set of diverse and talented people succeed at Bain,” said Russ Hagey, Bain’s Chief Talent Officer.

Diversity and inclusion are strategic priorities for Bain, deeply embedded in its focus on ensuring every individual can thrive in their Bain careers. The firm believes that bringing together diverse backgrounds, experiences, styles and perspectives – and doing so in a way that values these differences – results in more breakthrough results for clients and more fulfilling, rewarding experiences for Bain employees.

The firm uses a multifaceted approach to ensure that the firm’s employee base is diverse across many dimensions, and that they are able to continually thrive in their careers.

One key to delivering on this goal is Bain’s Diversity & Affinity Recruiting Team (DART). DART’s objective is to ensure that qualified Female, Black, Veteran, Latino, and LGBT candidates are successful throughout the hiring process. Once within the firm, Bain has a broad umbrella of diversity and inclusion initiatives across the firm, including the opportunity to join five Employee Resource Groups. Efforts span from cultural and training initiatives to programs around sponsorship to ensuring cutting-edge benefits.

Bain’s inclusive environment and supportive culture has helped earn the firm recognition around the world as a great place to work. It is the only company to rank number one on Glassdoor’s “Best Places to Work” list on three separate occasions, and it has consistently placed in the top four since Glassdoor founded the list in 2008. Bain was also top-ranked for the Vault Consulting 50 for 2018 and topped its list of “Best Consulting Firms for Firm Culture.” This year also marked the tenth consecutive year that Working Mother magazine named Bain to its “Best Companies” list and the twelfth consecutive year that Bain has received a perfect score from the Human Rights Campaign in its “Best Place to Work for GLBTQ Equality” index.
