PwC - what is the paternity leave policy? Do you need to be with the firm for a year before you can avail it?

I have two offers:
-$165k with a City of New York agency

Pregnant with my first and hoping to have another 2 years apart and trying to figure out what’s best from a crib/bed perspective, realizing that if I pass the crib down I end up needing a crib then two beds vs just getting a convertible for each kid.
