The last says ""mental health"" which I'm happy to bring up as I can use the speaking about self-care as a bridge (plus I want to make sure that I won't be expected to work 10+ hours per day). As for a specific mental health issue, as this question is asking, the answer would likely be no -- unless the potential employer has read some of my writing about it.",0,,,5,"Yes, I observed","There was a lot of burnout and depression at one of my previous jobs and the c-level leadership completely disregarded it.

There's the pressure to always be connected and it can be really toxic.

In retrospect, I think I suffered from some post-partum anxiety and post-partum depression after the birth of my first child. My leave was pretty short (6 weeks) and after 10 weeks when I would literally be crying at standup half the time, I was told I wasn't ramping up fast enough. I was the first woman on the team and the only mom that had ever been on the team, and honestly, because it was my first, I did not fully realize the extent of the post-partum issues, but there was also no support or recognition for them and, in fact, the additional pressure placed on me probably drove me into a worse spot for a little less than a year before I could think more clearly, recognize what was happening, etc.","Yes, I observed",,3,"I think this depends on the company. My former company(ies) were pretty bad. My current company is excellent. We have a mental health channel in slack, mental health benefits are often and openly discussed, both in-patient and out-patient services. Folks are encouraged to take mental health days if necessary and encouraged to discuss what they're going through with others. That being said, the company is facing a tough financial time so recently, the encouragement to take PTO, etc. has decreased and stress level has increased.","It was a little difficult for me to answer some of the questions related to mental health disorders because something like post-partum related issues are often for a short period of time so it's not a lifelong depression or something you struggle with all the time, but it is a huge mental health issue (and something that's generally not covered by insurance making it even more difficult to provide resources for).",0,33,female,United States of America,Maryland,White,,United States of America,Maryland,2017-11-17 23:43:06,2017-11-19 15:57:35,1ae67df214

I would rather sign up for a PPO, because even if premiums are higher, it's a commitment to my mental wellness for the year and I don't have to decide if I'm worth it on a weekly basis. I also felt we weren't doing enough to promote mental wellness, especially bc the company prides itself on being a great place to work with tons of benefits. I addressed it with them in summer 2015.

Nothing was getting done because I couldn't focus. My anxiety was going crazy because I felt like I was letting everyone down, and that was making it harder and harder to come into the office. Earlier in the year, a new 'no working from home' policy was brought in by the company owner, and so I felt like I had to stay and keep trying, despite not getting any progress made. Eventually after discussing a plan of attack with my project manager, I met with HR and requested a few accommodations. Specifically, a little more flexibility in hours and location of work. If my anxiety was making working from the office impossible, I wanted to be able to go home, regroup for a couple hours, and make up that time later in the day / week. HR and my manager were understanding and allowed this to occur. There was a little followup from time to time just to ensure things weren't getting worse and that I wasn't taking advantage of the situation. Additionally, between the Project Manager and my manager, we ensured there weren't too many tickets assigned in my backlog as well, to reduce the sense of an unending series of tasks piling up.",Maybe,1,"Just identified that I knew I was going through a phase of depression, and that I appreciated that they were reacting kindly despite my terrible attitude",0,,6,6,,,,,,,,,1,1,"No, none did",N/A (none offered),None did,None did,I don't know,Same level of comfort for each,Some of my previous supervisors,1,A very long and difficult depression episode led to me dropping down to 50% time for a few months while I worked my way through it,At some of my previous employers,0,,0,,5,5,Yes,Yes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Anxiety Disorder (Generalized, Social, Phobia, etc)","Mood Disorder (Depression, Bipolar Disorder, etc)",,"Eating Disorder (Anorexia, Bulimia, etc)",,,,,,,,,,Possibly,1,Yes,Rarely,Often,N/A,7,Maybe,,No,tech is club where any sort of weakness is unacceptable.,0,,,6,Maybe/Not sure,,"Yes, I experienced",,2,,,1,35,female,Canada,,,,Canada,,2017-11-17 21:08:48,2017-11-17 21:26:44,9dd0059d07

To be very general my experiences are that the larger/older companies who in the past did not emphasize employee mental health as part of their company values have harder time supporting mental health than smaller/newer companies. The idea that mental health and work life balance should be protected and encouraged by employers is a relatively new thing (at least it seems that way to me). I feel like the smaller or newer the company the easier it is to create the infrastructure to support employee mental health. ,For context I have worked for 3 different tech companies. 2 of them were companies that could be labeled as being more traditionally corporate and my current employer began as a startup and has only in the past 3 or 4 years grown into a larger/stable company.
