In remote environments, some people clearly put in more hours than necessary. It allows people who are capable of making sacrifices work overtime, and therefore raise the bar unnecessarily. No matter how much a company attempts to reinforce a 8 hour work day; people will sneak around it to keep up or to get ahead. This unbalances the playing field for parents. I myself am guilty of putting in more time than necessary. Sometimes I need to get a report in before eurozone starts, so I push something out at 11pm. It's in the best interests for a company to maintain the interests of people with children. People with children tend to stay longer and keep skill in your company, since they prefer stability. Compare this with new grads that job hop every year.
