I work in a team of all men and since I told my manager I was pregnant, I’ve been iced out of the team. I came back from maternity leave a couple months ago and my role has been given to my male coworker. HR said I should speak to him about it and have been no help. I keep getting rejections internally and externally and I’m feeling so low! Any advice would be appreciated

I’m sorry. I understand that because as women we definitely feel like we need to give it our all. Maybe find something work related you can address like a white paper, connections or getting involved in a work related volunteer activity that way you can put the time you aren’t actively working with your team towards something that mentally feels productive and less emphasis on the feeling like you just aren’t wanted/needed?

I'm pretty sure what they have done to you is illegal. You need to report it. I would still look for another position while collecting your check. There's job protection in place for maternity leave as long as you have been at a company for a certain amount of time and the company meets a minimum head count. Look it up on the Department of Labor website.

When you say that you keep getting rejections, is it asking to be on projects and then being told no? Are you currently utilized?

No internal and external roles. My team don’t do project work just routine tasks

Report it to Ethics & Compliance.

My manager is the type to retaliate so I’m fearful of what the outcome would be. I’ll just keep applying

Seems that the vaccine that usually takes more than 10 years to develop, test for side effects and go through the regulation process is being very fast tracked to roll out - which is a super great thing to potentially eradicate the virus. on the other side of the spectrum, people with life sciences n healthcare insights, how reliable and safe would you say vaccine (being fast tracked) is...?

Partners - Do you ever take vacations?

I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal? I can't tell if it's standard for big law partners to not take time off, if the dynamics for my group may be different (only 1 partner in the entire group), or it the partner I work with is just a masochist.
