I'm at an elite boutique firm where promotion is based on merit and not year class, and am leaving for mat leave soon just when it's my first eligible year to get promoted (ie promotions get announced right after I go). Firm messaging is vague at best - I've always been told I have nothing to worry about. Is there anything I should do before I go on mat leave to advocate for myself?

First of all congratulations!
I wasn’t in your position but maybe make sure to speak with your internal mentor in a way that shows your interested continues to be to become partner and that you’ll be back and so forth so like reassurances that maybe will make them give you a hint! Maybe I’d ask also others who have made partner recently to see if they were told anything ahead or not. Sometimes you can learn it’s a go for your group but still need whole board approval or something like that

Do tech companies in Canada give out RSUs or equivalent?

I was Listening to a podcast today about people in US tech getting rich from 50k to 100k of annual RSUs in the US that vest over 3 to 5 years then making millions when the company exits.

Wondering if there are similar opportunities in Canada or is it less common to receive a decent amount of equity here?
