Arnold & Porter Named to Fortune's 2016 '100 Best Companies to Work For' List

WASHINGTON, DC, March 3, 2016 -- Arnold & Porter LLP has been named one of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” in 2016 by FORTUNE magazine.  This marks the twelfth year the firm has been named to the prestigious list, which is regarded as the most authoritative ranking of its kind, largely because two-thirds of an employer's score is based on a confidential survey of employees.

The “100 Best Companies to Work For” list is compiled by FORTUNE in partnership with the Great Place to Work Institute, a global research and consulting firm operating in 45 countries around the world.  The results are based on two criteria: an evaluation of the policies and culture of each company.

Arnold & Porter has been recognized on many occasions for its family-friendly benefits and supportive work environment.  The firm has been named to Working Mother magazine's “100 Best Companies” list 16 times, most recently in 2015.  The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption also ranked Arnold & Porter in its 2015 “100 Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces” list.  In addition,  the firm has received the highest possible rating on the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index for several years.

Arnold & Porter LLP is an international law firm of nearly 800 lawyers with offices in Brussels, Denver, Houston, London, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and Washington, DC.  The firm, founded in 1946, maintains more than 25 practice areas spanning a broad spectrum of the law, with a primary focus on litigation, transactional matters, and regulatory issues.
