It bothers me that our NY office doesn’t have a maternity leave other than PFL. How much work does it represent to build a case for it? Anyone with experience doing this? Any learnings to share?

Hi! I am very passionate about this and have made the case successfully at 2 different agencies. Start here https://pledgepl.org

Also competitive info is your friend bc every agency wants to be competitive with the best agencies. Make some good bar charts comparing your place versus direct competitors and also the best agencies. WK, 72, etc have very good policies (at least for US workplaces).

This is incredibly helpful. Thank you! (And wow, 2! That’s amazing! How long did it take you to build the first one?)

Yes. We were successful with a short but clear request. Competitive analysis as well as clearly outlining what is being asked - A) to be on par with the industry and B) to be leaders in the industry.
Good luck - rooting for the entire industry to improve!!

We are looking to hire a FTE for systems integration. We are using Mulesoft as an IPAAS. I’m part of the hiring team. The pay is 6 figures it is fully remote, the benefits are insanely good and it can be your second job if you are very good. If you are great, it’s probably 15-20 hours of work per weeks. If you are good enough, I will even cover for you to coordinate with your primary job. DM me if you are interested as I’m tired of the crappy recruiting company we are contracted with.

I’ve made it 5+ years in a NY M&A practice and have consistent exceeding expectations reviews. I’ve had a few mental breakdowns because of work during this time, but thankfully made it through. I’ve been in a near constant depressive/anxious state for family reasons for the last year and half, and am soon having my first kid. I’m scared shitless that I’ll spiral out of control both at work and at home if something doesn’t change soon. Any suggestions on how to keep this job and keep it together?
