[quote=Anonymous]Completely depends how valuable you are. I know several women at my firm (300+ lawyers, but also not the tippy top of Vault) who have been eagerly welcomed back after maternity leave (including 2nd and some 3rd babies). Some came back 100%, some part-time. If you have a valuable skill set and others at your firm enjoy working with you, of course they don't want to lose you and have to retrain someone else. And of course partners hate it when women quit right after maternity leave. The point of generous maternity leave benefits is retention, not to give you a giant bonus on your way out the door.[/quote]
