Don’t give up paternity leave. That’s honestly the best perk of Deloitte, their parental leave policy is one of the best.

It’s 16 weeks
Figure out a way to take advantage of the paternity benefits. Those go a long way
Lol just stay til paternity leave and then take the new job while on leave 😈
That’s very easy what’s your point
Can you ask for a deferred start date?
Dude there is a crazy obsession with Deloitte on this app in every direction (negative and positive). I don’t get it. I just want to be normal and hidden lol
What?!?! Deloitte?! Good?! No. Our matching powerpoints are purple so we're cearly better!
You can tell the new company that you can’t start until January due to your upcoming birth. Take advantage of paternity leave then quit
“Get that bread, get that head, then leave”
Did someone say circlejerk?
I know...Now? Where? 👀

Your new firm has no paternity leave?
Very limited comparatively. Deloitte is 16 weeks, new firm is really a small business defense contractor (kind of an oxymoron lol) and provides I think a week or something like that

Paternity leave should be for 2 weeks, the rest of the time you are gone you’re just killing your career.
MD1, also bear in mind you can take the leave up to one full year from your child’s birth. So the point you’re making about “they won’t even know you’re there,” assumes you’re taking the leave instantly. I’m on paternity leave right now (6 weeks) and my daughter is 6 months old and fully aware of my presence. It’s amazing

Quick note- FMLA will still cover you if you take the job and need more time. You won’t be paid, but you can take the time.
Im in the same boat op. Our baby is due in april. May be i can boomerang by then? 🤨
