Anyone know which of the area defense contractors has the best benefits (I.e. paternity leave)? I’ve seen some that offer none and some that have provided 2 weeks. Seems that while perhaps the industry won’t match big tech, there has to be some out there that offer something more generous.

Deloitte is 16 weeks

Deloitte has 16 weeks of family leave for both moms and dads. But a lot of people throw PTO on top and make it 18-20. I’ve used it for both of my kids and it’s incredible. The paternity leave at Deloitte was one of the reasons I left Booz (at the time I think it was 2 week’s paternity leave though I heard it’s gotten better). We’re lucky that my wife also has great maternity leave so with both kids, my wife and I staggered our leave. She took the first 4.5 months off then I took my 4 months and we were able to keep our kids home for almost the first nine months. Which is amazing to spend that time with them, but also huge to save on childcare for a little longer.

Let me know if you have any questions!
