I’m planning to leave the company in a couple of months, and my current project is ending next week. I’d like to take some parental leave, but I’ve heard that you need to have a project lined up for your return in case of taking a leave of absence. What happens if I’m not able to get staffed ?

LOA and Parental Leave are 2 different things. You’re guaranteed a job coming back form parental leave and don’t need a role/project to come back. LOAs are a different story. Previously, there was a specific 3 month LOA you can come back from and don’t need a role (that may have changed), however, if you were on the longer LOA, up to 12 months, you do need a role to come back and you have a limited time (I think 30 days) to find the role otherwise you are considered to have voluntarily resigned, aka no severance. And I think in both LOAs you have to cash out to PTO balance and don’t accrue more, and you pay ins premiums.

Why do you care whether you have a role if your plan is to exit the company?

File for parental LOA if you're entitled to it, find a new job/resign at the end of your leave. Very simple

Hi everyone,
I passed my PMP thanks to this sub group.
I have passed Above Target in the People section, and T in the other sections.
It was 95% situational questions.
Thave used AR's mock exams, and used my wrong answers to figure out my weakness and where I truly stand. I didn't purchase AR's course, just the mock exam simulator.
The 200 agile questions by David McLachlan were amazing, it really helped me in adapting to an agile mindset. TIA simulator n Joseph Phillip is useful.

A topic I'm seeing debated is in the area of finding DevOps work or staffing those roles. Should "DevOps roles" be a specialty to be hired for, or just additional responsibilities for an existing dev or engineer to take on as-needed?

I've spent a lot of time on the "dev" side, including stints as a team lead and currently sit as a technical architect. What are some ways to get more involved in ops so that I can pivot to a DevOps-oriented role?

Can someone remind me what it's like to be in public and not in busy season? My brain can't go back 9 months
