[quote=Anonymous]What types of orgs are parent friendly? I recently started a new job at a large non-profit in a highly technical field. It is surprisingly very rigid and not very flexible. I don't understand how working parents make it work - in fact, the only working parent on my team was recently let go and I only have met one manager who is a working mother. I'm engaged and hope to have a kid in 2-3 years. What types of organizations. or companies are more accommodating for working parents, especially those of young kids? I think that if I have a kid while working at this organization, I will be let go eventually because of how inflexible they are - little sick time and strongly encouraged to not use it or all your vacation time, no flexibility on working hours for doctors appointments, etc. I don't see how I can manage a kid here even if I use daycare.
