SEATTLE (September 1, 2021)—Perkins Coie is pleased to announce that it has been named one of the 2021 “Companies That Care” by PEOPLE magazine. The 2021 list highlights the top 100 U.S. companies “that have succeeded in business while also demonstrating outstanding respect, care and concern for their employees, their communities and the environment.”

“We are honored to be recognized by PEOPLE magazine as a leading national law firm that respects and supports all its attorneys and professional staff,” said Jennifer Bluestein, Perkins Coie’s chief talent officer. “The past year has been extremely challenging for many of our employees with the ongoing pandemic, working from home with small children, the rise in racially motivated incidents, and the wildfires we have seen ravaging the western United States. We have sought to be there for each and every employee to support their wellbeing and individual situations.”

The “Companies that Care” list devised by Great Place to Work® and published by PEOPLE magazine is based on surveys of more than 5 million employees. The rankings reflect how companies have made a difference over the past year in their employees’ lives and in their communities while assessing each organization's benefits, philanthropic, and community support.

Perkins Coie ranked as the #1 U.S. employer among the 2021 “Best Workplaces in Consulting & Professional Services” by Great Place to Work®, and was named to the 2021 Fortune “100 Best Companies to Work For®” list for the 19th consecutive year, ranking at #23. The firm was also recently named one of the 2021 “Best Law Firms for Women” by Seramount, which was formerly Working Mother Media, and has earned the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s top rating of 100% in the Corporate Equality Index, a national benchmarking survey on corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality, for 13 years.
