[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t work in big law- just another new(ish) mom trying to navigate the demands of a full time job and motherhood. First off, you’re doing an amazing job and what you’re going through is so relatable. I read through some of the comments- not all- but just wanted to add that maybe you can inquire about some flexible working arrangements. My father was a partner at a corporate law firm, and while I was growing up, I was lucky to see him late nights and weekends. As I got older and technology advanced, he was able to work from home sometimes. Can you negotiate a day a week at home? Or maybe 80%? Another brilliant big law friend of mine did this. She ultimately went in house elsewhere as legal counsel and works four days a week now. Whatever you decide, I hope it works out and you feel that you are better able to manage work while enjoying your baby. Good luck :)[/quote] No need to be so nasty to OP.[/quote]
