The Career Counselor presents The Top Ten Companies for Working Moms and How to Negotiate Better Family-Friendly Benefits posted at ask the CareerCounselor, saying, “Although there are undoubtedly many companies still stuck in the dark ages of work-family balance, many employers are shifting toward a more positive attitude regarding extended maternity leave or extended time off for child care. More and more businesses are putting up quite a fight to hang onto valuable female employees and executives. These efforts include a range of clever time-management and career development options. For example, many employer programs offer women the opportunity to ‘phase back’ into work after leave, perhaps working only a few hours a day at the start and then working towards a normal full-time schedule. Other companies provide extended maternity leave or child-care leave, coupled with opportunities to stay up to date in their field such as free training classes and networking events.”
