Pacific Investment Management Co., known as PIMCO, scored a 100 on the 2023 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) from the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a political stakeholder group. By complying with the HRC’s controversial demands, the company increases the risk of dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders. It also uses sex and gender ideology criteria in employee recruitment, vendor selection, marketing, and philanthropic support. PIMCO forces employees to undergo multiple ideological trainings and uses its reputation, corporate funds, and political influence to support controversial sex and gender ideologies, organizations, and legislation. PIMCO provides a benefits package for employees which covers travel/lodging costs for an abortion and transgender medical procedures for covered employees and dependents, including children. The company does not provide its employees with protections against viewpoint discrimination but has not publicly terminated business relationships based on views or beliefs. The company is a copper sponsor of Out & Equal and a PCAF member. For these reasons, PIMCO receives a High Risk rating.
