For the eighth consecutive year, Discover Financial Services has
been named 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 approximately 700 other
companies.
“Growing up in San Francisco, my earliest memories include a
vibrant culture where LGBTQ+ members were accepted, supported and
celebrated, and I want to continue to ensure that we reflect that
same spirit of inclusion here at Discover,” said Roger Hochschild,
CEO and president of Discover. “We work hard to ensure that
Discover is a community where every employee feels like they belong
and will be accepted for who they are.”
Discover has eleven Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), which play
a significant role in upholding Discover’s pillars to sustain a
diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace. The ERGs contribute to
each pillar by providing access, opportunity, and exposure for our
diverse employee populations. PRIDE is the employee resource group
focusing on Discover’s LGBTQ+ community. The PRIDE group helps lead
marketing efforts behind Discover’s rainbow card design, known as
the Discover it® Pride Card. These efforts have led to a 5.5% YOY
increase in Pride Cards issued in 2020 as compared to 2019.
