Yes, and I love it. It gives me real purpose and keeps me sane!

I worked with ethics and my CEO to put in place safeguards. They were supportive. Talk to them and make a case for why it’s beneficial to the firm.

I swear to god if HR was actually competent where I work none of the guys I work with would survive. Had a coworker make a seriously messed up and disgusting joke about women in front of me and others, right after he said to me "I'm glad you didn't get all dramatic about it like those Me Too girls." 😡🤮 I get we work in a rural area and some things are seen as ok still but come on dude. Yuck.

Is it a red flag as a candidate to ask if a company offers maternity leave? I was recently laid off, so I wasn't expecting to lose my job. We're planning on trying for a baby in the next year or so, so it's really important to me that my next job offers paid maternity leave.

The issue is that it's so rarely advertised on company web sites, but ultimately better maternity leave would sway my decision for a job. Is there a way to ask this tactfully? Or without raising red flags?

Surprised that killing tens of thousands of Americans through laziness and incompetence nets a 33% approval.

Post-MBA, 5 weeks into consulting and I hate the weekends. It means I’m one week deeper in the job, and therefore performing another week lower than the level I’m expected to perform at. I have fucked up so much (led a disastrous client meeting, mistakes, slow to answer Qs, etc). My boss is picking up that this isn’t a “new” issue, its a me issue. I try my best to improve but I still feel so anxious, to the point that I started crying at my desk. What do I do? Anyone here quit within a month?
