How long do fed agencies give for maternity leave? does it matter if you take leave within your first year? does it vary from agency to agency? Specifically interested in SEC/CFTC.

I think the SEC has slightly better benefits in that you don’t have to be there for a year before you qualify for paid mat leave.

Thanks! anyone know about the CFTC?

We get 12 weeks paid after 1 year of employment. I also stacked sick leave and stretched it to 16 weeks. I think that’s uniform for all federal employees.

I'm accepting an offer with a new company... Start in early Aug. Senior Manager role, though in this company that equates to Manager at most consulting farms. They did not had hunt me. I came to them for the job.

I have COVID delayed vacations planned for the last week in August and the first week in October.

Should I just cancel one of them? Or should I at least put both on the table and see what they say? They're going to hire me either way, but I wonder if it's a bad start to ask for both.

They don’t even provide a computer or any other remote equipment for the completely remote position. Am I making a mistake? Also, can anyone chime in about being a 1099 employee?
