[quote=Anonymous] Priorities change after you have a baby. My perception is that most partners are not interested in accomodating new mothers and their changing priorities. Sure, they want the moms back who return at 110% as if they never had a baby, but really, how many women is this? Don't most of us cut back somewhat after having a baby? During a recent conversation with a friend who is currently on leave at her firm she mentioned that she had been told that partners hate when people quit within a few months of returning from leave. This surprised me. I assumed they would prefer that most women find another job after returning because it saves the firm the hassle of pushing out the women whose priorities have changed and who can no longer give the 110% to the firm. It also saves them the hassle of dealing with part-time associates. Any thoughts on this?[/quote]
