"Brave New Office" July, 2006 Francine Gemperle, a relatively new mom, and a talented Human Scientist, at MAYA is interviewed, along with a photo shot of her and her son, Milo, at our Pittsburgh office. They both look fabulous. A couple of points related to the article -- we are pro Mom and pro Dad, not just pro Mom. We are gender insensitive. MAYA spelling incorrect. This was and is not easy for the parent. Easier on some of the employees who love babies. More on that later.....

Also note that Christian and Kevin appear in the background of the photo, deeply engaged in conversation - possibly plotting revenge.

The article is short and misses what I think are the critical issues. Bringing the baby to work was hard, but invaluble because it allowed a transition from maternity leave to full time employment.

I'm really glad that Al has brought his baby in on occasion, and I'm really curious to see if this works out for Maryl and Dom.
