Best Companies to Work for Women
Working Mother has put out their annual list of the 100 Best Companies for Women. You can view the list here.
Employers are starting to be more flexible by offering on-site childcare, flextime, job sharing and paid maternity leave. Unfortunately, the majority of companies still are not offering these benefits.
When mothers are researching companies and interviewing for new jobs, they need to find out what the work culture is like. Are they family friendly? Do they believe in a work-life balance?
Figure out what you want and what is most important to you in your career. Some companies are at least trying to be more flexible with hours and benefits…make sure you try to get what you want. Find out as much as you can about the company’s benefits and policies before your interview so you know what you’re getting yourself into.
