Women at Bain - Support

We set the bar high, but we also believe in preparing you for success. So throughout your career here, you will receive world-class training along with personalized coaching and mentoring (both formally and informally) to help you advance and make valuable contributions.

At Bain, you will have a balanced and fulfilling career. From day one, Bain is behind its employees around the world. By offering flexible working models, sabbaticals, extended maternity leaves, unique career paths, externships and transfer opportunities, Bain allows employees to craft their own Bain experience. Bain is committed helping both men and women balance a successful career and their personal lifestyle. In fact, over 80% of our female Partners have taken advantage of our flexible offerings and every Partner's path is unique based on his or her needs.

Bain is committed to attracting, developing and retaining top female talent for our clients, and we are proud to be publicly recognized around the globe as a great place to work for mothers, women, and all of our employees. We're competitive for our clients, but very supportive with each other. That's why we're proud of our past awards from publications such as Vault and Working Mother Magazine.

In 2012, we were named to the Working Mother "100 Best Places to Work" list for the 5th year in a row and Rebecca Tadikonda (a Partner in our New York office) was named a Working Mother of the Year for her outstanding leadership and mentoring efforts.

What makes Bain the kind of place where women can thrive? To foster a sense of community, Bain has created an online platform for women called the Women's Experience Center (WXC), which arms women with useful information and a network of women at Bain. The WXC is an intranet site which provides Women at Bain a resource for coaching, discussion boards, a support system of female colleagues, interesting research and more.
