Expecting a baby this summer. Should I still be looking for other job opportunities? EY has a very generous paternity leave if you’ve been with the firm for 1+ years, but not sure if I would have the same opportunity to take 2-3 months leave if I switch jobs. Can I potentially work parental leave into negotiations?

Most companies require you the be employed there for 1 year before you qualify for maternity leave. 😞 I’d start looking while you’re on leave and can do interviews without having to worry about your work schedule. I did this when I was on maternity leave several years ago.

Exactly, and this includes EY, you have to be there one year before you qualify for maternity benefits.

I would not want to negotiate around that point, not would I want to ask to push my start date until the end of your EY leave. Your ideal situation is to find a job towards the end of your leave (don’t forget to use your unlimited PTO to extend two weeks!) and give notice on your first day back.

Definitely wait. I took the leave and think it really was great for me and the baby.

In the same boat. Waiting it out. Also, it's 4 months!

Please wait . Most companies cannot match EY here and even if they can they would ask one year of employment
