>so that his managers would not worry that his home life was impacting his work ethic
It isn't on the employee/spouse; this is why you have managers that sometimes have to tell employees to go home. We're so fearful of losing our jobs that we bend over backwards for employers. This is what happens when employers have an advantage.
>I know some upper management probably look down on this
So your boss is fine with it but your boss's boss may not be. At least you aren't living in fear of losing your job.
>I realize keeping this balance may disqualify me from ever becoming VP of engineering
Why should it keep you from becoming VP of engineering? That's messed up.

But if the employee is telling the manager that everything is fine and isn't showing signs of home stress, I don't blame the manager. > Why should it keep you from becoming VP of engineering? That's messed up. I think most companies are going to value and reward those who put in extra time consistently over those who don't.
