We are committed to ensuring that every individual in our firm has a place at the table.
We integrate these six pillars when supporting the perspectives, stories and voices of employees and individuals within the communities that we serve:
- Learning and Development
- Recruitment
- Culture
- Community
- Client Collaborations
- International/Domestic Alliances
How We’re Taking Action.
We align our actions with our beliefs by issuing mandatory firm-wide trainings, including unconscious bias and sexual harassment, and supporting community organizations with missions that foster diversity and inclusion.
Below reflects our continued commitment to supporting our people.
- Gender Equality. Friedman’s Women’s Development Network (WDN) provides powerful resources to help all of our women professionals develop critical skills, achieve work/life balance and advance their careers.
- Mental Wellness. We’ve expanded our benefits offerings to include increased mental health resources to support our employees during these unparalleled times.
- Ethnic/Racial Diversity. Promoting an inclusive recruiting and interview process, providing mentoring opportunities and partnering with on-campus affinity groups support our commitment to inclusive environments in our firm and in our community.
