The US should have 1 year of paid parental leave- agree or disagree?

I can't imagine having a dog, let alone a kid, working these hours. How do you guys do it?

Any moms here have experiences with hypnobirthing? Any videos or courses you recommend? My baby is due in January and I haven’t started thinking about birth yet! 😰

Ladies, how long did it take you to get pregnant with your kid(s)? Asking for a friend 🙋‍♀️ And were the months of the ‘two week wait’ literally the longest of your entire life?

What do you do for daycare Christmas gift? My baby has been at this home daycare for 2 months

The youngest baby boomers are either 54 or 55. In about 5 years all of them will be out. Does feel like there would be a dramatic change in our culture at the big four/Consulting and fortune 500?

PWC Moms: how long you have to work at PWC to qualify for fully paid maternity leave? I just received an offer but found out few months pregnant. Help me out!

Been seeing so many posts on generations- i mean millennials eat avocados coz thats all they can afford, GenXers have disappointed both pessimists and optimists, Baby boomers fucked it up for everyone

Ladies ... I’m expecting and I am trying to put a baby registry together ... which isn’t easy considering everything is still closed. Can you please help with must haves. Thank you so much.

If the office is shut down till summer, I’m going to show back up to work visibly pregnant lol. Anyone else a little pregnant right now and laughing about showing back up to work with a belly? 😂

Hi all, Can anyone suggest good daycare facilities/nannies around midtown west? I have a 1 year old baby and we are planning to move to the city next May. Thanks!!

Deloitte moms-suggestions for baby related ways to use the well-being subsidy (NOT a jogging stroller)? I already use part of it for monthly massages...

32, 8.5wks pregnant with my first, and I found out last night that my Dad is leaving my Mom. I can’t say I’m shocked (they’ve never been happy), and I know my mom needs support. I’m struggling with how emotionally involved to get at this time and thinking about the health of the baby is stressing me out too. I’m so exhausted, and every few years they go through some big blow up like this (actually leaving is new). They know I’m pregnant, and I don’t expect them to put life on hold for me, but...

Sitting in the window seat and there's a barking dog behind me and a baby beside me. I'm surrounded, help! #mondays

How do people feel about The Mahjong Line controversy that happened in January? Just found out my kid’s school is doing a fundraiser auction and one of the items up for bid is one of their sets. Should I say something?

Cousin, wife and his kid left after a weekend stay. Feeling so damn blue and super stressed about work tomorrow.

So her father has accepted my RFP. I'm proposing in Seattle in November. Does anyone have a scenic proposal spot they might recommend?

So I understand age discrimination in the general sense and I believe in it. However, I think something that isn’t talked about is age/gender discrimination against women in the reproductive age range. I feel like people could be looking at me and thinking: if we hire her, she might get pregnant soon. It’s so unfair and this is why we have a wage gap (or one of the reasons)! Thoughts? Any ways to get around this?

To all expecting mamas at Deloitte, I just found out about this and hole it helps someone else too. The Bright Beginnings maternity support program is a perk we get that was buried deep in DNet. I found it thanks to another post on here. If anyone else needs it,you just call 18443867354 to enroll and it takes 5 minutes. If you enroll in your first or second trimester, you get $200 Vantage Circle E gift voucher. This is the same portal that deloitte uses now for applause awards. 😊

This country needs labor laws that actually protect workers is when time like this comes, average folks like us don't have to worry to sick about layoffs.

Consulting life - getting ready and not even packed an hour before flight. To make it and have my seat in first class

If I file for marriage based green card during 60 day grace period on H1b without a job, will I be able to stay in US legally? My SO is a greencard holder and applied for citizenship ~6months ago...

Just got on a project I’ve been networking for a year to get on, but also got an interview with another firm I’ve been working hard for. They gave me a week to complete a case study that seems time

Music midtown lineup announced! #ATL... The killers, Ke$ha, lil Wayne and 2 chainz, beck, 21 pilots, Alabama shakes, lumineers, deadmau5... 🙌🏼

Partners - Do you ever take vacations? I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal? I can't tell if it's standard for big law partners to not take time off, if the dynamics for my group may be different (only 1 partner in the entire group), or it the partner I work with is just a masochist.

Do folks send their current and former clients holiday cards? Thinking of doing it to keep relationships.

I really struggle with the small talks in meetings, coming from a different culture only adds to complexity.

What did you have to go through to get your current role and how did you prepare for it ? Almost every interview now has an excel case, multiple rounds, different types of testing ?

I’m moving to big law (from regional firm) in a month. Am I allowed to workout during the day? I love going for lunch-time runs but I’m scared I’ll get fired for not responding to an email within 15 mins. Please say I’m allowed lol

To the married fish: Did you allow children to attend your wedding? I don't want to, but feel awkward having a 'no kids' policy.

I really appreciate when interviewers give feedback and don’t ghost. Just received a rejection email saying I interviewed well but didn’t have the experience. It’s a slight confidence boost for me.

I work for a small boutique firm with ABYSMAL and TOXIC culture. The CEO has a habit of firing anyone who questions/disobeys him (he fired 40+ consultants since concis started) 5 consultants (incl myself) quit in the past 2 weeks leaving the firm with less than 10 consultants. I’m loving this karma

I’ve come to the conclusion I’m much happier in London than I am in America. Any 🇬🇧 MBB open to a referral?

Why do some firms say “on the bench” and others say “on the beach”?

Is the covid data being over or undercounted? I know there are a lot of different theories regarding this

Moved to a new city to start work and been remote/WFH with small non-local teams (biggest was 3 other people) for months now. How do I stay healthy (once corona is done) if my work is isolating me?
