Bank of America among best for working mothers

Bank of America is again among the top 10 companies in the country for working mothers, according to this year's list from Working Mother magazine.

The magazine cites the Charlotte bank's new "sponsorship" program pairing women with senior executives and last year's worldwide online women's conference. It also mentions 10 bank day care centers and a back-up child care program.

Sixty percent of Bank of America employees are women, the magazine reported, including 47 percent of executives. Fifty-seven percent of hires last year were women.

Bank of America was tops of 16 financial services companies named to the top 100. PNC made the list, as did Capital One, Citi, JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs.

Only one other North Carolina company made the top 100: Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina.

"sponsorship program pairing women with senior executives..."

Separating those two as categories speaks volumes. Reporting this as though it were not produced by an organization that sells corporate sponsorship doesn't seem to be up to even a minimal standard of journalism, much less one Id expect from CO.
