Her employees can't work from home and be with their young children while she gets an in office nursery.

Sure they can, thanks to the maternity leave that she extended to sixteen weeks. Meanwhile, she only took two weeks for herself.
In any case, it's absurd to compare the CEO. Do Amazon employees get to ride on Bezos' jet to get home faster? It's just a vastly different position.

What are you supposed to do after the sixteen weeks?
Maybe back up on that endangering people's lives, or--if I'm wrong about Theranos--at least place them as equals.
Does it matter that Mayer built a nursery? I can't see how that's not a total non sequitur.
Calling out latent sexism where people think they are being completely normal--because sexism is completely normalized in the tech community right now is exactly what I will keep doing.
