Does anyone know what the paternity leave allowance is for UKI? Regardless of what Shared Parental Leave. Just paternity leave only? I read on some policy its 2 weeks? Is this true? Mothers get 9months full pay and dads only 2 weeks? Can someone who has recently taken pat leave confirm please?

Hmmm woulda thought we would be better at this by now. Goldman Sachs gives UK based employees 6 months paid parental leave regardless of mum/dad...

2 weeks only for paternity leave. Having said that Accenture’s SPL policy os one of the best in the market and works well for the dads

Sad. Many great firms (think Big Tech) are opting gender neutral policies including the birth of a child.

First 8 weeks as an Associate after jumping from Big4:

Pros - super smart/driven colleagues, more unique/interesting work, more ownership, benefits are awesome, traveling frequently, more technical work, more frequent feedback

Cons - hours are worse, much faster timelines, having to learn the BCG way quickly, much higher expectations, less ability to choose cases

Overall very happy with the switch so far - happy to answer any questions!
