As Bain & Co. celebrates its 50th anniversary, the management consulting firm boasts locations in 65 cities and 40 countries worldwide, and has focused heavily on retention, creating a new program to rotate staff across teams.

In its embrace of DEI initiatives, Bain achieved a perfect score in 2022 from the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index for fostering LGBTQ workplace inclusion. Last year, the company launched the First at Bain affinity group, a community for staff who are first-generation college students or first to experience a career in professional services, and expanded its other affinity groups, including Black at Bain, Women at Bain, and Diverse Abilities at Bain.

“Bain's culture is unbeatable. It's the most magical mix of incredibly smart people that produce amazing work, coupled with a genuine care for each other's success and well-being. I couldn't imagine working anywhere else over the last few years as we navigated COVID, remote work, children home from school, quarantines and other life stressors. Bain has been incredibly supportive to me as a working mom. I am given a great amount of flexibility to do my job and be present for my daughter. There is full trust that I will get my job done, and more importantly there is empathy that being a working parent right now is hard as we continue to navigate COVID and returning to the office.”
