What do you think is the appropriate notice to give your employer about an upcoming paternity leave? And has anyone experienced backlash?

I want to take at least a month off. I'm in California, if that matters.

Well if it’s a paid leave you need to do paperwork and specify when the leave starts and when it ends. The length is determined by your state/company.

I didn’t receive backlash and even if I had, they could go f themselves.

2-3 months.
What is your company policy on paternity leave for length of time?

My partner is currently on 3 months of paternity leave. He let everyone know months in advance. His baby came a month early so it started abruptly but we all knew it would happen this summer so it’s on us for being caught off guard when it did. As far as I know, no one has bugged him about work - ok, except for me once looking for a file - and the company is supportive and respectful of his time off.

Thank you ACD 🙏

My boss is currently on 6 months fully paid paternity leave. As you can imagine, I’m not at PS - I just haven’t updated my company yet

I've passed through various circles of hell where Publicis shops wallow, so I know what you mean.

Six months would be so wonderful though. I don't think it could ever happen in the States.
