I'm almost three months pregnant, should I disclose this when interviewing or keep it to myself? I don't look pregnant yet so there's no way a hiring manager could tell but would they be pissed if they hired me and found out I hid the fact I was pregnant?

I vote you keep this information to yourself because letting companies know you're pregnant before they hire you will make it nearly impossible for you to find a job

They do not need to know until it's time to arrange coverage.

Absolutely not. Keep it to yourself until you can’t. Get the job, and look after yourself and your family.

Don’t disclose. Would they be pissed? Idk, depends on the place and how strapped they are. Sounds like you work in house so probably not as bad. Just make sure you don’t need to work a whole year before you get paid leave.

Think about it this way- you might not tell your coworkers or anyone outside your inner circle until month 5 when you get the week 20 results (I personally didn’t want to jinx anything), so you certainly don’t owe that type of personal info to a potential employer.

Yes to all of the above! It’s your business and yours alone for now.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

Had an FET transfer and just got the news that the pregnancy test is negative. Feeling very defeated about it. All my labs are good (AMH 3.1) and the embryos were PGA tested. Have only two left now, and this was the best quality one. The irony is I did feel pregnant couple days after transfer but then I stopped feeling pregnant. I read that some women don’t really “feel” pregnant until 6-7 weeks… but i did “feel” then stopped. It just sucks. If you have any advice for coping, I’d appreciate it.

Question about remote job negotiations

I'm currently interviewing for a remote role for a company based in NY.

The thing is I'm based in a different city (southern U.S.)

My question is:

When it comes time to talk compensation, should I base the market rate for the role on my city of residence or NY?

Would it make sense to ask them directly how they determine comp for NY-bases vs. other city-based employees?

Anyone have experience with this?

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
