Is it ok to leave your company and find a different opportunity if there isn’t a paternity leave policy in place?

Honestly, it's a red flag. A lack of paternity leave reflects poorly on a company's values and commitment to its employees. If they're not willing to support you during such a significant life event, it might be time to find an employer who appreciates your contributions and prioritizes work-life balance.

Of course you can leave a job for any reason. Just don’t say that in the interview. If you get an offer ask to see the details of the benefits. If you go around saying you need leave they might not wanna hire you lol

It’s ok, but a strange benefit to take a stand on if the rest is fine. It’s a benefit most people take once or twice and you may live in a state that has paid family leave which your employer is forced to comply with.

Make sure you get any sort of paternity leave in writing.
