Want to pursue higher education even though you’ve joined the working world? At this financial services company, employees are eligible for tuition reimbursements that cover up to 80% of the cost of their job-related college courses, to a maximum of $5,250 annually. Other neat financial perks include bonuses, discounted company stock and pretax health care and dependent care accounts. Most valuable is the company’s commitment to diverse employees, whom it considers for every open position and actively seeks out for top roles. Multicultural women are 35% of the participants in its web-based mentoring program (where they are advised by senior-level officers and executives); those deemed especially high potential receive even more intensive guidance from leaders. To better understand everyone’s progress, management evaluates a twice-yearly scorecard with diversity and inclusion metrics.
