PP - would you be willing to share what lare nonprofit? or give me a list of like 2 or 3 i can look at to see if they are hiring?

Large nonprofit: 12 weeks, fully paid. Company-paid short term disability covers some percentage of salary and the organization picks up the rest.

Oh, and it's the same for co-parents, except they don't get STD, so the company just pays the whole amount.

Ha! Use my vacation and sick and then nothing!

large nonprofit. 12 weeks unpaid FMLA, as required by law. For payment, you have 6-8 weeks of STD paid at 70% of salary (premiums paid 100% by employer), anything else is out of PTO, but we do accrue a ridiculous amount of PTO every year (I think mine is something like 37 days), so saving up for a fully paid mat leave is not difficult.

12 weeks unpaid through FMLA. I pay for disability insurance via paycheck deduction. Got 6 weeks of my leave paid by that. There's a 2 week wait before that kicks in, so I used 2 weeks of PTO for that. The remaining weeks were LWOP.

Small (130 employees) govt consulting company.

mine: small family run company - follow FMLA (can take 12 weeks unpaid or use vacation/sick time)

i am sure the big fancy progressive companies have amazing benefits, but what about all the "normal" companies out there? what do they do?

thanks!

Same here (fed government) - except FMLA here is 16 weeks - its unpaid or we can use vacation/sick leave

Small trade association. Our company allows up to 12 weeks - you use accrued PTO first, then it's unpaid. Company also offers short term disability at the employee's cost (not expensive) which covers 60% of salary for 6 weeks after PTO is exhausted. Finally, the company continues to pay all health benefits through the leave period.

Jealous of biglaw's 18 weeks of paid leave. Wow.

18 weeks paid. Biglaw firm.

my company has similar to OP, but my friend that just had a baby gets 16 weeks paid at 80%.
