Companies Hiring Pregnant Women
Wanted to get a pulse on tech companies (and/or top companies) willing to hire pregnant women in their first trimester. Don’t want to choose between starting a family and moving forward in my career. I am ready to move on where I am treated fairly, awarded for good/hard work and paid the market rate. I’ve had a rough year and need to maintain my sanity. I’ve seen Facebook and one other tech company willing to do this.
I'm pretty sure that if a company doesn't hire you BECAUSE you are pregnant, that's discrimination. If is isn't showing, there is no need to tell them until they make the offer. You'll need to know their maternity leave policies. Also, congratulations! Children are a blessing!
I know tableau has hired pregnant women.
Chewy - I know a pregnant woman who was hired in her second trimester.
Could you wait to have the baby before you jump into a new role? If so, that maybe better for all who are involved including your child. Perhaps freelance in the interim to keep your skills sharp...
Just hold that baby up there and don’t let it come out for awhile lmao
🤣🤣😭 omg I just let out the biggest laugh and now I look crazy
I thought most company parental leave policy benefits start after a certain amount of time. Policies I’ve seen are you get x weeks for maternity after being at the company for over x months. So you might not get the paid time off you should be getting if you’re hired pregnant vs got pregnant while working there.
I’ve never been at a company which had such a policy personally
Are you honestly so myopic that you don't realize the level of benefits you get at Google are extraordinarily rare???
You are not required to disclose that you are pregnant. I’ve known women who were in their 2nd and 3rd trimesters who were hired at Amazon.
I’ve seen LinkedIn hire some people very visibly pregnant that took parental leave shortly after coming on
Every company in California, discrimination on the basis of pregnancy status is unlawful.
Apple. Have seen multiple.
If you disclose that you're pregnant and the company balks, that's a very good filter for a shitty place you won't be happy at
Have you seen pregnant women hired in your experience?
Also, it's illegal and they could be sued
