Working parents, families and Silicon Valley- the search for parent friendly culture in 2015-2016
04/07/2015
A former Chief Technology Officer of Facebook, who has started his own startup Quip, says the culture for mothers of children, working parents and families is not what it should be. He is raising two young children. Mothers at companies in Silicon Valley say they are sometimes the only parent in a team among many 20+ years employees. The culture is not friendly to women and families when it comes to time needed for helping raise a family.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
