Curious to know what the norm is — does your firm prorate your bonus for time that you are out on paid parental leave?

My firm did and my spouse’s didn’t (both biglaw firms)

No prorating for paid parental leave.

No prorating here

Our firm prorates bonus for anyone not billing the full year, whether parental leave, other leave, or lateraling. Seems to align with other California firms.

Wow, can someone name the firms who don’t prorate? Mine does.

Our firm prorates. Not big law.
