Paternal leave is almost non-existent in comparison to the adjustments other companies are making. I would be much happier with a more generous paternal leave. Several male employees speak about the need for a better paternal leave policy, but the culture stifles the voice of these male employees to request a change in this policy. There is no commuter shuttle from any other areas, and it is in demand considering the commute for some employees. Tuition reimbursement for higher education usually gets denied. Health benefits are weak and expensive for employees and their families. Also, specific roles allow employees to work from home once a week (which could easily be extended given the nature of such functions). As long as employees are productive, I do not see why this is an issue. Given the rapid development of technology, telecommuting should not be a foreign concept in an organization, especially given that the location of the organization is in Modesto, which isn't central for many employees.
