Has anyone accepted a new job within 6-8 weeks of your due date? When and how did you negotiate that - did you tell them up front? Did you negotiate mat leave of any kind? Tips welcome.

Haven’t done it that late, but did start a new job at 5 months preg. Negotiated mat leave after all other negotiations (salary, PTO, bonus). I found out what the company policy is for mat leave for employees who have been there a full year, and tries to get that, offered to sign a retention agreement so they didn’t have to worry about me getting the leave and not coming back. Didn’t get the full leave but got better than the minimum. Maybe they can upfront you vacation days, sick time or whatever to help. (Congrats by the way!)

@EYfishes what are the best resources to get details on EY fertility benefits and process?

So I’ve been with a court for a while and honestly the pay sucks compared to what paralegals should be making… the benefits are great though and they match my retirement 100% now that I’m vested at 3 years.I have 4 kids and 1 is getting ready for college. I feel like the benefits are great but I’d rather make more now. I am a previous LEO for 4 years who switched to paralegal so I have my leo retirement. Paralegals here make $28 with no benefits what is a good compromise

Third question: I’m new in the DC area, are PDMs invited to firm socials? Trying to make friends! Thanks in advance
