>Does it matter that Mayer built a nursery? I can't see how that's not a total non sequitur.

Her employees can't work from home and be with their young children while she gets an in office nursery.

Sure they can, thanks to the maternity leave that she extended to sixteen weeks. Meanwhile, she only took two weeks for herself.

In any case, it's absurd to compare the CEO. Do Amazon employees get to ride on Bezos' jet to get home faster? It's just a vastly different position.

What are you supposed to do after the sixteen weeks?
Quit your job or hire a stranger to take care of your baby.
I mean, do you really need me to explain why people see Meyer's move as hypocritical?
