"Definitely depends on your team/manager/peers. Unfortunately I was not lucky to find myself in a supportive team. I’m the only female, had to fight for a fair, uncontestable promotion to be ranked among my male teammates with equal amounts of experience, and struggle everyday to feel valued and listened to. It has gotten harder and more tense since I told my manager I would be taking advantage of the maternity leave benefits."
