By valuing diverse perspectives, we can better serve our clients while we help employees achieve their professional objectives. A corporate culture that is open and inclusive is fundamental to our role as a global leader constantly striving for excellence in all that we do.”
DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION AT A GLANCE
At Morgan Stanley, Diversity and Inclusion is a business imperative that helps our clients benefit from the widest possible range of insights, experiences and perspectives. Our goal is to build and maintain a workforce that is both diverse in background and uniform in reflecting our core values. With a broad commitment to a culture of inclusion, we endeavor to attract and retain top candidates from all backgrounds through a focus on recruitment, development and individual advancement.
RECRUITMENT
At Morgan Stanley, we strive to be the employer of choice for prospective employees. Working with key external partners, universities and search firms, we engage candidates from underrepresented groups who are interested in joining a global financial firm. We host educational days for high school, undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in a career in financial services. Internships play an equally important role in attracting talent to the Firm. Outstanding underrepresented students at the undergraduate and graduate levels may be eligible for an academic scholarship, which includes a paid internship in various Morgan Stanley divisions.

Careers
Human capital is Warburg Pincus’ most important asset. The recruitment, development, and retention of a diverse group of talented people with a wide variety of experiences and perspectives is a top priority for the entire firm.
An investing career at Warburg Pincus can span sectors and regions and last decades. For the firm’s investing groups, a key goal is to develop a versatile investor: a professional who can develop and pursue a thesis, partner with management, build businesses of scale, and generate the right risk-adjusted returns. Ideally, an investing career at Warburg Pincus would analyze opportunities across the stage of development spectrum and perhaps also work in more than one region. This calls for a high degree of intellectual curiosity, rigorous analytical ability, well-developed communication skills and the ability to work with a wide variety of people.
The firm also looks for top talent to support our operating functions as well. These areas, which – like our investment business – span the globe, include fundraising, accounting and finance, legal and compliance, and the various elements of our investment support activities.

About
KKR is a leading global investment firm that offers alternative asset management as well as capital markets and insurance solutions. As investors with an industrialist vision, we aim to generate attractive investment returns by following a patient and disciplined approach, employing high-quality people, pursuing the highest standards of excellence, and aligning our interests with those of our investment partners.
We often talk about the benefits of our structure and our business model - which marries third party capital with our capital markets business and balance sheet - because we believe that we have built something different. We have a capital markets business that provides a full range of services, from taking companies public to underwriting new deals (for both KKR and third party companies) and to syndicating debt and equity. And we have long-dated capital in our funds, ready to deploy across a wide variety of asset classes. Individually, these funds and businesses are generating returns for our fund investors and stockholders, but when they are paired, they create a powerful competitive advantage. We see our balance sheet as a key differentiator, giving us the ability to align our interest with our fund investors, develop new investment strategies and support existing ones, and enter into strategic transactions on our own behalf.
Careers
At KKR, we believe that diverse teams increase performance and produce better results. Teams consisting of employees with varied backgrounds and perspectives will help strengthen our Firm and our investment decisions. Therefore, in an effort to enhance the diversity of our organization, we are particularly focused on recruiting talent that will bring different experiences, capabilities, skills and viewpoints to our firm.
Careers at KKR
About
We believe in collaborative, long-term partnerships. We believe the entrepreneurs we invest in are really good at what they do. We believe that growth equity is more than just capital. But most importantly, we believe in our values:
Integrity- Character matters. Our reputation is the single most important asset we have. It dwarfs that of any single investment or any financial outcome we may achieve.
Teamwork- Collaboration is the bedrock of our firm. We make investment decisions as a team. We support our companies as a team. We win and lose together.
Humility- We continually learn from those around us. Starting a business is, by definition, a crazy thing to do. Given we took the leap ourselves, we will never lose sight of the challenges our founders face every day.
Conviction- Our job is to take calculated risk. We have been investors for a long time over multiple cycles. We know what we are looking for and move quickly and are all in when we find it.
