Received a formal warning letter at Publicis Sapient⁠� regarding communication gaps around sick leave/unplanned absence and manager updates. No performance issues were mentioned.
How serious is this usually in IT companies/PS? If communication improves, does it normally remain as a warning, or can it impact seious issues and also in such cases, is there any possibility of further action like termination? Looking for genuine experiences and advice

During Covid time in India, I took a planned week off as I had lots of unused leaves. The HR system detected multiple leaves and they emailed me asking if I am doing fine, whether I have Covid (I didn't) and if I need any help. When I told them that I am on planned vacation, they asked me to enjoy my time off. They used to be compassionate back in the days.

Do give background as to what lead to this to understand where they are coming from? Are you in project or bench? Seems like warning letter is pushed by manager in some way and it can be bad. Get feedback from manager maybe who might have pushed for it

How does self release work? I thought it has to be agreed upon by project lead or someone

Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone could give me some advice. I’ve been taking care of my extremely sick (literally on the verge of dying) dog. I work from home so it’s not too much of a nuisance but I feel distracted all day long and can hardly get anything done because I worry about my dog. I feel like I’d benefit from a day off or even half a day off but I’ve only been working for my firm for a month now, plus I have “discretionary time off.” Would it be okay for me to ask for a day off?

Misled on Maternity Leave Policy. I found out I only get 4 weeks pay for maternity leave (STD +“sick days”). I will take 12 weeks but wont get paid for 8 weeks. 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?

Do we know if there is a sponsoring partner that oversees this benefit/ program that I could have more of a heart to heart conversation with? Not getting too far with the general email box and admin contact. From the benefit policy documentation, my understanding is that EY reimburses employees for surrogacy / adoption related expenses up to $50k lifetime. However, anything related to IVF or medical procedures has to go through insurance (also limited to $50k lifetime benefit). Continued…
