New hire here. What's the difference between PTO and floating holiday? How many of the latter do we have and which one should I take first? Just basically how does this floating holiday thing work?

The days you take your floating holidays are determined by Deloitte. Usually used to turn Independence Day and Labor Day weekends into 4 day weekends.

If your client works a floating holiday, you can take it another day. Supposed to be within 60 days of when it is scheduled and need to take the full 8 hours at once.

Thanks!

I turned Christmas to "Festivus" but sometime in late Jan and went overseas

Were you able to air all your grievances within 8 hours?

And did you float New Years for the feats of strength?

I’ve been asked to weigh in on how to improve my firms parental leave policy. It’s currently 8 weeks paid for birth parent with an extra week for each year at the firm (up to 12 weeks total) and 2 weeks paid for non-birth parent. I’m in a major city, firm is a boutique that has been around a very long time. What would you suggest? Any studies or research you’ve seen recently on trends in parental leave policies also helpful. I’d like to have some sort of data to back up what I recommend. TIA!

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).

Any Deloitte fishes out there that have analyzed the health benefit options for Vyvanse coverage? Both me and my daughter take Vyvanse and I have been burned by plan coverage/prescription benefits in the past. I think the PPO plans actually end up cheaper, all other variables removed.

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes ..
