Work-life balance

As the firm at the top of Consulting magazine’s “10 Best Firms to Work For” for the sixth year in a row, Bain & Company knows a thing or two about keeping their employees happy and engaged. “The most important thing to understand about consulting is that the retention of top talent is a major business priority,” said Heidi Locke Simon, a Partner in Bain’s San Francisco office. Bain has a history of flexible work options for both men and women. These policies are designed for all top talent, not for employees of a particular gender.” While not solely for women, the programs in place are helping their female employees stay in the Bain family, or easily “on-ramp” after leaving due to familial obligations.
