It's time to renew/set your benefits for the upcoming year.


What crazy things are you seeing in your benefit package?

Mine is that my employer is giving those who have worked 1-3 years more PTO days.

In what world does that make sense? Just increase everyone's acrural rate a bit. Give me a few more hours a year. But isolating a benefit specifically to those in year 1-3 is ridiculous.

It is fair...those who have been there longer get more PTO in most companies. This world needs to get over that there are rewards for those who earn them!!! Likewise, there are consequences for our actions as well !!! This is life and the way it's supposed to be!! This new age garbage that everyone has entitlement is crap!!

Yeah I agree, i think that's why increasing the rate of accrual for everyone is the best option, not just giving additional benefits to one group

Maybe they're noticing a drop off rate in that 1-3 year group and see that once people hit that 3/4 year they stay longer. I'm sure there is a reason.

Maybe the current 1-3 year employees were short-changed on their PTO at the time of hiring? Maybe the company was in some financial restraint at the time so anyone hired during that period maybe got less PTO than, say, 4+ year employees. And maybe now they're able to bring the 1-3 year employees up to the level of PTO that they should have had in the beginning. I don't know if that's the case but it sounds nasty to think that a select group of employees was treated as "lesser than" other employees.

To clarify, all employees get PTO. We have a tiered accrual. Your rate of PTO acrural increases with years of service. However, this benefit update gives extra PTO to people specifically in years 1-3 or service here. I don't feel like it's appropriate to isolate a benefit increase to one specific group. If you've been here 3.2 years, that .2 too long and if you've been here 5 or 6 you see now change in accrual.

I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts?

I just started a new job 2 months ago, benefits and PTO don’t start until 90 days in so I still have a month before I can take off any time, and today found out my company doesn’t offer paid maternity leave.
I’m really struggling handling the symptoms and maintaining my full time job. Thinking about looking for a part time job to have more time to myself through the pregnancy since I won’t be getting a paid leave anyways, but lost on where to start looking. Any recommendations?

Hi lady fish,

I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and am about to take maternal leave. I got an interesting conversation with HR yesterday about leaving Accenture after maternal leave, and the kicker is to join the client. I got a couple of questions for you guys:

One...did anyone leave Accenture right after maternal leave? If so, what happened? Did they have to pay back anything?

I work for a US, west coast based company in the tech/VC industry. Their website claims to offer “paid parental leave and other progressive benefits for parents”. I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?
