[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have done the opposite (like most people). I was in private practice and went to the Feds. I was always in small firms and there was no mentoring, no career training and if you didn't like the people you worked with tough luck. One firm went under and I lost my job at 3 months pregnant. Now I am in a big department, I have lots of training possibilities and I like my colleagues. Life-work balance is great. I would never take a job where I have to log back in after bringing the kids to bed. Good luck to you but I feel working for the government as a female is the best deal.[/quote] We had many women that left for private sector [i]return [/i]to our agency after they had children. Due to intermittent hiring freezes it took longer for some of them to get back in.[/quote]
