On January 28, 2021, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation announced the results of its 2021 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), the nation’s premier benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality. For the second consecutive year, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati received a top score of 100 and the designation as a "Best Place to Work" for LGBTQ equality. The firm is one of 767 major U.S. businesses that earned top marks this year.

The results of the 2021 CEI showcase not only how 1,142 U.S.-based companies are promoting LGBTQ-friendly workplace policies in the U.S., but also that 57 percent of CEI-rated companies with global operations are helping advance the cause of LGBTQ inclusion in workplaces abroad.

The CEI rates employers providing these crucial protections to over 18 million U.S. workers and an additional 17 million abroad. Companies rated in the CEI include Fortune magazine’s 500 largest publicly traded businesses, American Lawyer magazine’s top 200 revenue-grossing law firms (AmLaw 200), and hundreds of publicly and privately held mid- to large-sized businesses.
