I am one month pregnant and received an offer from EY, which has a 6-month probation period. Should I accept the offer? Can they fire me during probation if I tell them about my pregnancy?

Hi i am 2 months pregnant and have received an offer from EY with 30% hike. I am confused if i should drop my papers and switch ? as it can be an issue going for hybrid workmode and then taking maternity very soon. i am in the Bangalore location of Globant so i dont have to go to office presently.

Have an offer from a company with a probation period of 3 months (SDE) Want to understand the things to be wary of in probation? And how is it evaluated? What has to go wrong to get fired? Heard from a couple of folks it's nothing serious, but the way terms and conditions are defined for probation looks more like something to definitely keep in mind.

Hi guys! I have a situation. I hold an offer from a company now. And only after the offer was released, we realised our pregnancy. What would be the right thing to do now. Should I tell the new company about this and how will my maternity leaves be impacted? Is it not wise to join the new company even after knowing the situation? Or how do I handle this 🥺

Hi. Does anyone know if taking a sabbatical during pregnancy can lead to the company using this as a reason of non-performance to either fire the women or not provide her with the maternity leave benefits? Context 1. Company is aware that the person is pregnant 2. Person in question has been with the company for 2+ years 3. Past appraisal ratings have been 'Exceeds Expectations' or 'Meets Expectation' 4. Sabbatical period could be 1-2 months. Maternity leave will not immediately start after the sabbatical

How common is probation in big tech firms or startups, I am about to join a startup and they have probation of six months mentioned in offer letter, is it a red flag or is it pretty common. During probation, they wont have any notice period. Tc 65 Yoe 4

I recently joined a company and it has been 1.5 months there and the total probation is for 3 months and the manager has made it clear to me in the starting that they can let me go off during probation anytime easily. But when I looked at the offer letter there was no provision for me to do the same. My actual problem with this company is that they make you sit in the office and complete the general shift timing which is 9 hours. Also there is an opening in Blinkit for sde1(android) on instahyre for which I want to apply as I am in love with their product and getting an opportunity to work for that product is like a dream for me. So should I take this move and apply at other org and move from here during probation

I recently received an offer where they’ve stated I’ll have to join on a 3 months probation period. Is this normal? I haven’t ever seen this before for Mid-Senior Level employees. YoE - 8 y Profile - Senior Sales IC Tech /SaaS industry

Last month I posted about firing a female employee after maternity that created a debate: https://share.gvine.app/fdu9iQyCrQP6Ehn89 For anyone interested in how things turned out, here it is... TLDR: Employee/new mom filed an FIR, police closed it after she admitted she quit after we tried to put her on a PIP. (In FIR she said she was wrongly terminated) The women's commission of India summoned me after and it was an experience! I got scolded for about 2h by four women... but in the end they just scolded me like angry teachers? I guess they tried to give the lady some satisfaction by humiliating me. Pretty sad if that's all they can do to represent women with genuine cases. Overall the average grapevine user said I was in the wrong for putting a new mom on a PIP, regardless of performance before and after pregnancy. Most critical folks told me I should've informed the employee about performance issues before maternity. Lawyers say I made the right choice and protected the company. It's a bit messed up that laws designed to protect women at work end up making things worse for them. Because of legal fear we went directly to a formal PIP with recorded calls with HR, the direct manager and others refused to do anything without legal advice. But in the end, she filed a case, so perhaps the cold approach recommended by lawyers was sadly correct. Lastly, I finally saw that outside of my own business echo chamber (both men and women business people), society holds pregnant women and new moms valuable above all else. Someone like me who is a bachelor & slave to capitalism has a totally different set of values, as such some people think I'm fair game for insults. But I hope by making products of value I can make a positive impact in my own way. Thanks for providing your perspectives.
