[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly do you mean by “parent friendly”?  Have you looked at the Washingtonian magazine’s Best Places to Work issues?   [/quote]

I mostly mean being able to take time off when infants/toddlers are sick and daycare makes me pick them up and I have to use sick time. Also, being able to take them to doctors appointments and being able to use sick time or flex time. I've worked places before whereas long as I put my time in and work got done, I would never be hurt by taking time off. So it's not remote work that I care about (I'm hybrid), it's about realizing that kid things came up and the employer being flexible. This new organization is not like that at all for others and it's not even a for-profit company. [/quote]

How many days a week you can telework with the hybrid schedule?[/quote]

Two days. But if childcare is canceled, you need to take care of your child. My former coworker who is a mother of a five year old and a three year old was told she takes too much time off during her PIP meeting before being let go. [/quote]

Is your workplace using unlimited PTO? If she used her accrued PTO and work got done, why is it a problem? She will take those PTOs anyway.[/quote]
