[quote=Anonymous]I know people who have taken 1 year sabbaticals at different organizations -- one at a large law firm, one at an NGO, and one at a federal agency. None of these were for having kids but I would assume working somewhere that offers sabbaticals like this for other reasons (sometimes for education or research, but also sometimes for totally personal reasons, like the lawyer spent the year living abroad with their children, not working) would also be more inclined to allow an extended parental leave. Some companies really are just better on not only parental leave issues but work-life issues in general. Places that really value institutional knowledge and people who come in with a high amount of education and specialized knowledge. It's not every employer but some people on this thread who are like "no company would allow this!" simply have not worked in places that do, in fact, allow this. Especially for high level employees.[/quote]
