Do you mean like a day here and there?

Or do you mean a leave of absence for extended period.

If you're sick, stay home. No one else wants to get sick and have to take time off. I know lots of people who take time when sick. Slogging through had me get strep throat and bronchitis 6 times last year. Not.worth.it.

Manage it with your engagement leads, reports, partners and if they give you a hard time, HR. Build in business continuity plans into your effort estimates for engagements. What will you do if someone gets sick? Quits? Put the plan into practice when you or someone else needs time.

Job offer extended but now some red flags… I was extended an offer today with a pay raise and great benefits. It’s in a field that interests me more but, now some red flags have come up. They voided my offer after asking for time off way in advance in December of this year & the pay that was discussed on the phone is different from my offer letter. I asked the recruiter to clarify and she said I must’ve not heard her correctly on the phone. I’m not having second thoughts… I was excited.
