"it was a very toxic experience with absolutely no support from a remote manager that did not support our business line’s mission. Sadly, women in management positions didn’t support other women, especially in the retail and Wealth channel. The organization is run by inept management."

"The maximum paid leave most people can accrue is 8 weeks. There is a cap on sick time; it stops accruing after you reach 200 hours. Most positions get two to three weeks vacation/year and it must be used that year, though sick time can roll over. So you have to schedule your vacations "provided I don't get pregnant" (which I'm sure most managers would understand if things change) and try to piece together some income for the 12-16 weeks we are permitted by law (depending on your state). After that, you can use short term disability at 66% of your income."
