Anyone have experience negotiating maternity leave? Presumably you didn’t negotiate until after you received an offer, but how did you confirm what the company’s actual policy is (e.g. if you’re eligible for parental leave and/or 100% STD on day 1 then it might be moot and you wouldn’t even need to negotiate at all)? Did you negotiate being eligible for leave after you got the offer but as a hypothetical or did you actually tell them you were pregnant? I’m 8 weeks, expecting an offer.
