DH took three weeks, his work offered more but he felt like he had to get back to his team. I wish DH's work was more flexible and he could have started back part time, I could still use him around for longer then the weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paternity-leave-at-netflix#post-2439509 Thu, 28 Jan 2016 08:26:09 +0000 bisous 2439509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great article! And for sure echoes my own feelings, too. My employer doesn't offer a full year or anything, but the benefit is generous for the first 12 weeks and enough that I could nearly double my maternity leave for LO2. </p> <p>People have been very respectful of my decision to take what amounts to 5 months off, but it was not an easy choice to make!</p> <p>I think the Netflix benefit is awesome-definitely hope to hear more stories in the same vein! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paternity-leave-at-netflix#post-2439466 Thu, 28 Jan 2016 07:36:00 +0000 Adira 2439466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE that he chose to take 8 weeks off!!! So many guys return to work after just one or two weeks! So even if he's not taking a whole year off, he's definitely taking advantage of the extra time Netflix is allowing and I think that's awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paternity-leave-at-netflix#post-2439384 Thu, 28 Jan 2016 01:24:51 +0000 birdofafeather 2439384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very cool that he can make his own way. A lot of freedom in that and obvious support. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paternity-leave-at-netflix#post-2439148 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 16:46:56 +0000 littlejoy 2439148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've chatted about Netflix's parental leave on here before. </p> <p>My dear friend just wrote about his experience, and I thought I'd share here: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/my-paternity-leave-netflix-casey-rosenthal" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/my-paternity-leave-netflix-casey-rosenthal</a></p> <p>His thoughts echo a lot of my own ... navigating the waters of parenting and having a career.</p> <p>I think some of you will enjoy his perspective, as there hasn't been a lot of coverage since the initial announcement of the policy. </p>
