"After returning from my 3 day bereavement, my work sent me to meet a new client. At the hospital my mom died at. I immediately put in my 2 weeks," one person shared.

"5 days paid bereavement when I lost my son," another wrote. "Used up all my PTO, but coworkers donated their PTO for me so I had enough for 1 month."

A third person shared their story: :Had a family member pass and I got wrote up for performance issues because I couldn’t stop crying at my desk. It’s unbelievable how they treat us. I’m so sorry."
