While some are calling Netflix’s new parental leave policy — one that allows employees to take off however long they feel they need during their child’s first year of life, with pay — is game-changing, saying it sets a new precedent for companies in a nation that’s historically bad at providing similar benefits to working parents.

 

But others claim the policy will do more harm than good. Some claim unlimited paid time off policies don’t work, and only succeed in making those who take advantage of it resented among their co-workers. Others say women are less likely to return to work if they stay away longer. Others say it might just be too difficult for companies to adapt to such a lax policy.
