I just resumed at a new place of work yesterday and I already noticed they don't have a good work-life balance. I resumed at 9 am and had to beg to leave by 5 pm, well technically. I like to work from 8 am to 4 pm because I have daycare runs and daycare closes by 5:30 pm. Yesterday, my supervisor was in the office from 8 am till 7:30 pm and she was the first to resume today by 8 am. My colleague also told me she got an email from a supervisor by 9:30 pm and she worked till 1 am. Where I was working before was pretty laid back and I don't put in extra hours. I am a little worried I may not be able to work that long, I like to spend quality time with my daughter after work and I am also writing a professional exam. Should I be worried?
