Not for me. It's turbocharged my career. It helps that I'm at the level where management isn't seeing my contribution as hours in a chair. Having kids gave me something in common with all of our senior management. Anecdotally, that improved relationship has been a hell of a boost for my career success.
It certainly will depend on your individual situation. If your management is all childless workaholics, I can see how it would totally count against you.
- randtrain34 6y agoAgree completely.
- giantg2 6y agoHaving something in common is good. Managers are expected to work 9.5 hours per day and be available 24/7 to recieve calls/texts/emails on their phones. So even if they have kids, they need to put in 50 hours a week, which isn't too bad I guess.
