[quote=Anonymous]Hmm, let’s think about this. They paid you less than a “typical” bonus for an underperformer, making clear they’re not eager to retain you, assuming (correctly) that you would make a change in connection with your pregnancy—whether it’s moving elsewhere, going SAHM, or asking to go PT. How exactly is the “joke on them”? Trust me, my feisty young colleague, you’re neither the first nor the last to jump on and off the carousel. I doubt you’re at my firm, but your partners knew you were leaving before you did. The downside, for those interested, is that this is an 80%+ story. It’s a massive impediment to women (other than the non-child bearing) reaching the top of the profession. [/quote]
