Think Opportunity, Think Baker McKenzie! Global in our outlook from the beginning, we know the value of our talent in sustaining our success.
Our recruitment appears to be highly diverse, and the firm culture is built on inclusion. I have been impressed with the diversity of the firm and its ability to make arrangements for those who may need them.
Overall, i’ve found the firm’s approach to diversity and inclusion to be positive and proactive. While i haven’t been directly involved in all the initiatives, it’s clear that inclusion, diversity, and equity (id&e) are taken seriously and embedded into the firm’s culture. There are multiple sub-committees — like bakerwomen, baker pride & allies, bakerdna, and others — that focus on supporting different communities and promoting equity across recruitment, promotion, and workplace culture. These groups are open to all staff and provide opportunities to contribute, learn, and connect across the firm." "there’s also strong leadership support for id&e, with regular communications from senior leaders reaffirming the firm’s commitment, even in the face of external challenges. Initiatives like the ‘inclusion matters’ newsletter, storytelling campaigns like id&me, and events around pride, neurodiversity, and international women’s day all reflect a genuine effort to foster an inclusive environment.
The firm has various committees that are focused on diversity and inclusion. The firm has flexible work arrangements in place that assist with inclusion of people with various responsibilities outside of work.
The firm has good dei initiatives internally and externally.
