What’s the pat leave? Having more leave for women than men can discourage companies from hiring women. So make sure to encourage equal leave for both!

Oh sorry, didn’t mean to pick apart your language! I’d just never thought about how additional maternity leave could be bad for women until someone pointed that out to me once.

Value is measured by the balance sheet and little else. Afghanistan has more leave than the US.

Wellllll not exactly an apples to apples comparison but I get what you’re getting at

Do you know if you have to pay it back if you quit as soon as your leave is over?

I’m probably in the minority but i find that reasonable

Senior PM in healthcare IT, with my PMP. I have a promotion coming to Program Manager. What type of salary increase should I expect?

Definitely took the wrong job. I was offered a seriously competitive salary and great benefits to work at a well funded startup, which is great! Turns out the salary and benefits were meant as lowkey bribes to insure I worked at the company without actually doing any work. Every single suggestion I've made has been shut down and I've been ghosted for several meetings with the CEO. What should I do? Just leave?
