Axiom recognizes diversity as a critical mandate for performance, problem-solving, innovation, transformation, productivity, and resilience.

Our latest Diversity Snapshot reveals that Axiom’s legal talent is more diverse in terms of race, ethnicity, and gender than legal industry standards. We believe that Axiom’s model – which offers legal professionals a career rooted in autonomy, flexibility, and choice – naturally leads to a more diverse universe. Our commitment to diversity extends beyond our legal professional population to our corporate employee and executive populations.

Take a look at our DEI snapshot

In addition to our commitment to creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive (DEI) workplace, we prioritize pay parity.  

Axiom’s goal is to ensure parity on compensation among peers regardless of race, ethnicity, or gender. We achieve this goal by regularly analyzing, identifying, and addressing potential disparate compensation. We leverage data and analytics to continuously engage in benchmarking and market pricing exercises, salary band and pay transparency initiatives, and DEI pay reviews and compensation assessments related to offers, promotions, and annual increases.

There’s an importance of diversity itself and diversity of thought and experience as a high priority. The more conversations you have among people who have different experiences, the more issues you can be prepared for as an organization.

Players like Axiom are making the pool of candidates wider and deeper. That’s a function of market conditions, but also people conditions.
