So that’s a hard “yes”

Six months is a lot though. If you are gone for that long you have to wonder if what you’re doing is even meaningful.

KPMG1 - why do you seriously doubt that most people take the entire time off? I mean, stats on this are available, so you can easily see how many parents take 6m+ (which was the original baseline).

Still unsure how meaningfulness of current occupation is related to amount of time one takes off to parent an infant, incidentally.

I regret choosing Deloitte India over USI, salary is same but i liked the clarity of my leadership team, which is still the same they are awesome, but USI people are getting many benefits, on time Hikes and appraisals, but i don't get all of those, which is kinda depressing.
