Another woman has joined the federal government’s lawsuit against Bloomberg L.P., the financial services and media company founded by Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, accusing the company of discriminating against pregnant employees.

The woman, Monica Prestia, says in the lawsuit that she was hired as an account executive with Bloomberg in 1997 and within two years was promoted to Latin American sales manager for Bloomberg Television. After she had her first child in 2005, she received the worst performance review of her career, her compensation fell, and a supervisor who could not have children of her own was openly hostile to her, the suit claims. The hostility only increased when Ms. Prestia complained to the Human Resources Department, which did not take action, the complaint states.

This is definitely a compelling aspect of Corporate America. What do you think?
