What's the maternity leave policy for fulltime Google employees who worked for less than a year?

Correct. Google, unlike other companies, does not require an employee to be employed for a year to avail of the maternity/paternity PTO.

I believe the same as for long-time Googlers - six months.

This includes 4 weeks pre-delivery and 5 months after. You get a couple extra weeks for c-section or difficult birth for physical recovery.

The plan which we are on (Spouse and I) with HSA had an deductible of $2600 and out of pocket max of $5200. gHip plan (Anthem BCBS). We had our child in November. There is indeed a free plan but I’m not sure about the deductible and out of pocket. Irrespective, if you take the plan with HSA, Google contributes $1k for individuals/$2K for families, so your max outta pocket will still only come out to $3.2K.

Thanks G2! Really appreciate it. I am sure I’ll have more questions down the road, we’re still at the very beginning so sorting through it all. Congrats on your little one!
And yes this might normally be Google-bowl-worthy but since someone from McKinsey posted not a Googler, I think it’s fair here :)

Thanks again!!!!

I’m on the free health insurance plan w/ higher deductibles and a funded HSA. I know for sure we have insurance options that could make birth “free”, but I don’t know if my plan has that sort of coverage.

No waiting on coverage to take effect.

(That primary caregivers even have to ask these sorts of questions is kind of depressing)

How about the medical insurance coverage? How much out of pocket/deductible do new moms end up paying for a child birth with the Google's insurance policy? For McKinsey, if using all in-network providers $ facilities, it's free after paying for the deductible which is something like $100 for individual and $300 for family.

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment. We got a faint positive today but have had so many chemical pregnancies over the past year that I am not confident it will stick this time BUT I am on aspirin and progesterone for this try … so it could.. I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?
