[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op back. I don't think I can go.to government. Opportunities are sparse on usajobs and I've applied for 6 months without a bite. I also can't hire another nanny -- as a 3rd year with a lot of debt, we are barely making ends meet with one full time nanny. Yes, I did think my firm would be more family friendly. I chose this firm because during the interview, every single MALE partner told me that he either did drop off or pick up every single day and that I'd be fine with two young children. I now see that they were less than honest -- they do drop off or pick-up WHEN they have time which is not the normal.[/quote] This is because their HR people and outside labor lawyers counsel them against being honest or saying anything that could be construed as discriminatory towards women with children. But all the women partners at my BigLaw firm were childless or waited until they were at least senior associates before having kids. [/quote]
