I'm not technically job hunting, but I am miserable at my current job. A professional acquaintance recently referred me for a really amazing opportunity, and after an initial phone interview, I have the face-to-face interview on Monday. Things are sounding very promising.
The thing is, I absolutely can't bring myself to put a pause on TTC. DH and I have talked and decided we would keep trying even if I got a new job...especially because it's unlikely to happen right away since my thyroid level is still way too high.
I'm really torn on what to do IF I do get offered this position. The company is HUGE on employee happiness and well-being, but if for some reason we conceived right away, I wouldn't be eligible for FMLA. I know it would be in the company's hands to decide how to handle it, but I'm just curious how other women in this situation have gone about making the decision what to do. I'd like to find out what the company's policies are on maternity leave and/or short term disability, but I don't know how to ask about it without being obvious. Advice, anyone?
