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

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
