For the seventh year in a row, Discover Financial Services has
been recognized as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality and
earned a perfect 100 score from the Human Rights Campaign’s Annual
Corporate Equality Index (CEI).
CEI is a national benchmarking survey and report that measures
corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace
equality and inclusion. The report provides an in-depth analysis
and ratings of U.S. employers, their policies and practices
pertinent to LGBTQ employees.
With over 1,000 companies analyzed by the index, Discover earned
a perfect 100 score alongside almost 700 other companies.
“Our company is made stronger by having a diverse workforce and
an inclusive culture,” said Roger Hochschild, CEO and president of
Discover. “We pride ourselves on drawing employees from different
backgrounds and we strive to create an environment where every
Discover employee feels a sense of belonging.”
Discover has ten Employee Resource Groups, which provides tools
and resources to help employees connect, build communities at work,
and foster an inclusive environment. PRIDE is the employee resource
group supporting Discover’s LGBTQ community. In recent years, the
group helped lead marketing efforts behind Discover’s rainbow card
design, known as the Discover it Pride Card. These efforts have led
to an almost 5% increase in Pride Cards issued in 2019 as compared
to 2018.
