[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you a man or a woman? [/quote] I was just about to ask that. I am a woman and while I was treated perfectly equitably at BigLaw, I watched several women get pushed out after they had kids -- sudden bad reviews, nasty comments, one outright firing within weeks of announcing a pregnancy (and this was an attorney who was a top biller). I didn't have kids yet and made the decision to get out of BigLaw before I did. I haven't seen nearly anything that egregious in the government, though I am at a small agency, not DOJ. I have heard that many women leave the litigating sections of DOJ for family reasons as well ... perhaps others can speak to that. Of course, if you are done having kids, that may not be an issue for you at all.[/quote]
