Whether you have children, are expecting, or are thinking about adding to your family in the future, Pinterest supports you with a variety of family benefits.
Pinterest provides 20 weeks of paid Parental Leave for parents to bond with a newborn or a newly adopted child. For either maternity or paternity leave, during those 20 weeks you receive full pay – minus any government benefits you may receive, to avoid duplication.
Returning to work after parental leave can be a big change, which is why we offer a gradual return to work period of four weeks to ensure you have the proper time to ramp up and re-engage in your work. This optional program allows you to return to work part-time, working 1-4 days a week with full pay. You may only take one (1) gradual return to work period per birth, adoption or foster care placement. If you choose to not take all 20 weeks continuously, you may choose which leave block you will use the gradual return to work period. If you would like to take a gradual return, this optional form may help you stay organized. Please align on your gradual return schedule at least 1 month before your return to work.
Due to business needs, in some cases, managers may be unable to accommodate your preferred schedule, subject to any accommodation requests provided for in accordance with medical documentation.
