[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends what you call mommy tracking.

For example among my friends, most of us of both genders left biglaw after a few years because we wanted better work-life balance. That was before any of us had kids and some still don't and don't plan to.

I think mommy tracking is a pejorative term that encompasses a lot of choices. [b]If I make $300k for a WFH job where I am viewed as an expert in my field, am I "mommy tracking" because I'm not trying to be the CEO and I'm happy with my current schedule?[/b][/quote]

What role is this? It seems likely so unique to be unrepeatable? How did you end up here?[/quote]

NP.  It's not that unique.  I work for an insurance company where many mid-level positions pay that much and allow you to WFH full time.  Oh, and WFH started before Covid; we historically had multiple offices and it wasn't unusual to have teams spread across different locations, so we were used to working/collaborating/managing remotely.   But you have to have the right experience.[/quote]

So a finance or legal role?[/quote]

I'm the PP who posted earlier. I'm an in-house attorney at a large company. I feel fortunate but not unique - there are similarly situated jobs.[/quote]

$300 for in house is pretty high unless you are GC[/quote]
