Seramount Names Dechert Among the 2022 Best Companies for Multicultural Women

Dechert LLP has been named one of the 2022 “Best Companies for Multicultural Women” by Seramount (formerly Working Mother Media) for the third consecutive year. This honor recognizes companies that create and use best practices in hiring, retaining and promoting multicultural women in the United States.

Since 2003, Seramount’s Best Companies for Multicultural Women has tracked progress by corporations and law firms in creating cultures that encourage multicultural women to join and rise through the ranks, while also assessing factors influencing that progress, including mental-health and anti-racism progress, mentoring and sponsorship participation.

The list is produced by means of a survey containing more than 500 questions on representation; hiring, attrition and promotion rates; recruitment, retention and advancement programs; and company culture. The scoring algorithm is based on the previous year’s benchmark results, which then determine the winners.

Dechert earned a number of accolades from Seramount in the past year, including recognition in the company’s 2022 Top Companies for Executive Women list and 2021 Inclusion Index.
