"Mid to upper management is male dominated, and so as a woman, you have to make sure you get in good politically. Women tend to be judged a bit harder than men, and more so, mothers are judged more. The maternity leave was mediocre. 6 weeks paid at a percentage of your salary for a natural birth and 8 weeks paid for a C-Section. The rest of maternity leave is unpaid. There is limited to no flexibility when you return to the work force. Despite my role being completely online with clients out of state, and most of team sitting in another office (also out of state), my boss wanted me in office. I would sit there being less productive than I would have been at home, because as a first time parent, I worried about my daughter and also found it extremely stressful to find time to pump milk at work. There was only one mother's pumping room in our office and 4 women that needed it. Therefore, we'd all try to rush in or secure time to privately pump. There is a greater need to accommodate mothers, particularly mothers of newborns."

"I've worked here for almost 3 years, and have found that women here are treated fairly for the most part...until it comes time to fill a senior management role. Overall, though, the company does emphasize work/life balance, and it's not unusual for employees - men and women - to duck out early to pick up the kids, or work from home when a child is sick."

"I get to work on projects that I really enjoy. However great people seem to be leaving the company faster than great people get hired. On my org - perhaps less than in others- a man's opinion seems to count for more than a woman's of equal credibility and rank. It seems I've seen this happen more often than not that Women have to work harder and prove their points when men can make the same points and be believed with little or no proof. However the company as a whole is aware if the inherent unconscious bias and is making efforts to abate it."

"There is a huge gap between going from an hourly employee to a salary employee. Most require external experience to move forth. The company is working on improving these problems, but as of now, it is still a struggle."

"Leadership is a boy's club. Over the past few years there has been a lot of movement in Sr. Leadership and women have become less present in Leadership. Given the boy's club atmosphere, I'm not sure how they'll correct for this."
