I'm inclined to agree with you. If the board is questioning Mayer's leadership, i.e. her boss thinks she is not that great independent of her pregnancy, she's on thin ice. But what do I know -- if I were her, I'd gladly take the $100 million golden parachute and retire at 40.
- ryandrake 11y agoI don't get it. With or without a golden parachute, she is likely already in the class of people who have enough wealth to never have to work a day in their lives ever again if they don't want to. Her children will probably not ever have to work a day in their lives either. Why choose not to take time with them? They're only babies once.

- pen2l 11y agoDo you know there are guys working at Walmart who are forced to miss the birth of their children? I personally know a guy who was in this situation, he was a cashier at Walmart and was forced to miss his child's birth because he was forced to be there on a busy day. It's not just CEOs and high-paying folks not taking time off for paternity/maternity leave, it's everybody people who work in autoshops, cell phone stores, construction jobs, etc.
- kumarski 11y agoThat's awful. Didn't know that type of thing still happened.
- the_ancient 11y agoWhat kind of Candy coated, sheltered existence do you have? Missing a childs birth is disappointing, not being able to feed that child is awful... Not being able to get that child medical care is awful, Children working $2 a day to make your $500 pants is awful.....
- ryandrake 11y agoThe difference, of course, is that the high-paying folks choose to not take time off, whereas your friend was forced to.
