  • Non-discrimination policies across business entities
  • Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families
  • Supporting an inclusive culture
  • Corporate social responsibility

“CrowdStrike remains committed to sustaining an inclusive workplace to protect its employees and ensure they feel empowered to be their authentic selves. We strive to embrace a company culture that not only understands but respects and listens to our employees and prospects, ensuring the organization works towards advocacy, inclusivity, and is ultimately free from discrimination of any sort,” said J.C. Herrera, chief human resources officer at CrowdStrike. “We are thrilled that CrowdStrike has been recognized by the Human Rights Campaign for a second consecutive time, and remain unwavering in progressing the company as a champion for the LGBTQ+ community.”

Over the course of 2021, CrowdStrike remained committed to helping those in the LGBTQ+ community. Company-wide initiatives included enabling individuals to incorporate their pronouns into various work functionalities, webinars focused on transgender awareness and allyship, and commissioned custom Pride-themed SWAG to celebrate equality during the month of June. All proceeds benefited Youth Seen. Youth Seen’s mission is to foster and empower the social and emotional well-being of LGBTQI youth and their families in all communities.CrowdStrike’s Pride Team, also sponsored a session featuring Dr. Della Mosely during International Human Rights Day. Mosely’s talk sought to bring awareness to human rights issues, in the hopes of spreading a message of kindness, inclusivity and intersectionality.

“When the Human Rights Campaign Foundation created the Corporate Equality Index 20 years ago, we dreamed that LGBTQ+ workers—from the factory floor to corporate headquarters, in big cities and small towns—could have access to the policies and benefits needed to thrive and live life authentically,” said Jay Brown, Human Rights Campaign Senior Vice President of Programs, Research and Training. “We are proud that the Corporate Equality Index paved the way to that reality for countless LGBTQ+ workers in America and abroad. But there is still more to do, which is why we are raising the bar yet again to create more equitable workplaces and a better tomorrow for LGBTQ+ workers everywhere. Congratulations to CrowdStrike for achieving the title of ‘best places to work for LGBTQ+ equality’ and working to advance inclusion in the workplace.”
