So just had a pleasant surprise to find out that BDO changed a few months ago their paid parental leave policy from

Primary parent gets 9 weeks leave
Secondary parent gets 2 weeks leave

To now every BDO employee after 12 months gets 9 weeks (aside dual bdo parents getting combined 11 weeks)

What's everyone's thought and what is the policy at other companies

It’s 2 weeks before the birth that short term disability kicks in! So for birth mom, 2 weeks before + 16 weeks + 3 weeks vaca. Everyone else (dad, adopt, etc), 16 weeks + 3 weeks vaca. All full pay. You have to be there a year for the benefit to kick in, and there have to be 12 months between the last day of one parental leave and the beginning of the next.

We have a lot of dual KPMG parents. Never understood why they are penalized on leave vs two separate company parents.

12 weeks for GT

Deloitte is 16 weeks

Yes, mothers get 6-8 weeks short term disability (based on whether it’s a natural labor or C-section) on top of the 16 weeks plus you can take PTO, so it comes together to 6 months you can take at once. But the leave itself is 16 weeks.

I thought BDO was 16 weeks? Anyone can confirm?

Paid parental leave is 9 weeks and then the mother can qualify for short term disability which would be 6-8 weeks

CLA is 12 weeks fully paid maternity. 6 weeks fully paid paternity.
