Well I won't just speak for women. However, I can say in general those who have children or other jobs this may not work. It's not all it's cracked up to be with balancing time between your kids and work.

1 2 3 4 5There isn't much flexibility your blindsided and tricked into departments and shifts though you may have requested something different. They could have originally claimed to accommodate that schedule. Yet when you start can be given something very different and are expected to work said schedule.

You have to be willing to work hard but everyone has equal opportunity to succeed and facetime isn't required.

You need to be able to stand up for yourself, be willing to call out men for repeating your ideas, speak up at the table, figure out what you need to take a stand on and what you need to let slide, and be ready to work hard. Carefully vet the group you are going to and the manager and skip manager.

Maybe. It depends on the job, the manager/org, the level and desire to be promoted (and at what speed), and how much backbone you have.

Reduce the "young boys club". Fitting into what they rho k a good employee looks like is very prevalent. Young, white males are praised. Fitting in to the clique is more important than delivering results. Challenge their group think paradigm.

If you want to have a baby, great! The maternity leave is awesome (paid for five months). If you already have a family, or once you get back from leave, good luck! Don't expect any special treatment; your hours and travel won't change.

1 2 3 4 5Hours and travel are sometimes flexible, and at other times, non-negotiable. Great maternity leave, but don't expect to work less than 12 hour days during the week...and possibly weekends, too. Brutal environment.
