About Us
Mission: 

We have one mission: winning high-quality paid family and medical leave for everyone.

Programs: 

Paid Leave for the United States (PL+US) is the national campaign to win paid family leave by 2022, founded by Katie Bethell, who Fortune Magazine named one of the world’s greatest leaders. In just four short years, PL+US has won paid leave for nearly 8 million people. We’ve won change at some of the top employers in the country, including Walmart and Starbucks, and we’re taking that momentum into the fight to win national public policy. Paid leave is poised to take off as the next high-profile national issue.

Since our founding, the PL+US team has tripled in size and has cultivated a culture that is bold, curious, real, excellent, and compassionate. We are agile, collaborative problem solvers who are passionate about winning paid leave and we mean it when we say that family comes first, for those we fight alongside and for our own team.

Why Work For Us?: 
  • Awesome team of high impact, low ego people who live by our organizational values: be bold, curious, real, excellent and compassionate.
  • Flexible work schedule. If you need to leave early to pick up your kid from school or bring your mom to the doctor, that’s cool.
  • Up to 6 months of paid family leave, as well as health, dental, and vision insurance (up to $850/month when you enroll in our plans).
  • Generous time off. Unlimited vacation, 12 paid holidays, and we all take the week between Christmas and New Years off.
  • Retirement accounts. We offer a 401(k) since we want you to retire one day.
  • Commuter benefits program, medical and dependent care FSA program, and employer-paid life and disability insurance.

PL+US is deeply committed to diversity. We strongly encourage people of color, first-generation Americans, people with caregiving responsibilities, people with disabilities, and members of the queer community to apply.
