    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.
