Marissa’s Remote Work Request and the Fallout:
Marissa told Today that she and two superiors initially established a remote work schedule. But Ying later rejected the accommodation.
‘Hey, unfortunately, we won’t be able to [make this arrangement] and for that reason, we will take this as your resignation,'” Marissa recalled being told, saying they added, “When you get home and you decide that you want to work again, we would consider taking you back.”
In a Jan. 22 email to Today, a Kyte Baby spokesperson said, “Ying did not feel her job could be done remotely and if she could not return to the office after her maternity leave, then we would part ways.” The rep added that Marissa was told “a job would be there when she was ready to return.”
Just a few days before Marissa’s interview, a rep for the company told CNN that as she had been with the company for about seven months, she qualified for two weeks of paid maternity leave.
