Return to work success for me
Pros: I left the work force for 5 years to raise my kids. Then I returned part-time for a few years. I joined IBM as a full time contractor. They have truly been great to me. This is mostly due to my direct manager (and her manager). I am full time permanent now - they are happy to let me be as ambitious as I want in terms of my career direction.
Cons: Yes there are way more men than women and it can be a pain sometimes. But there is a better support system than most male dominated companies (more women in leadership roles)
