Marissa Mayer's Job Is to Be CEO—Not to Make Life Easier for Working Moms - Anne-Marie Slaughter

Oh yuck. To be fair, couldn’t have really expected better from the woman who brought you “CAN WOMEN REALLY HAVE IT ALL CHAPTER 98459348345”

Also, she completely misframes the argument. It’s not about working MOMS. It’s about working PARENTS, and other people who are lacking in privilege who have shit to deal with in their lives that make commuting to the office every day difficult or impossible—people who have to care for sick or aging family members, people with disabilities, etc.

tl;dr fail.
