The California-based software company Adobe announced Monday that effective November 1, it will be doubling its paid maternity leave and boosting its paid paternity leave.

The announcement comes the week after Netflix announced it would offer a year of paid parental leave and Microsoft announced it would offer 12 weeks of paid paternal leave, but Adobe told Reuters that its own plan was in development long before it became aware of either Netflix or Microsoft's plans.
