职场新调查:工作生活失衡不能怪老板

新泽西州麦迪逊现年38岁的社区工作学生安娜•布拉德肖表示，她一直使用谷歌（Google）日历表功能，综合安排自己的工作、家庭生活和丈夫的工作。“任何时候我都能立即同意某天晚上加班，或者回绝其他一些事情，因为我知道丈夫的日程安排，”有3个小孩（年龄分别为8岁、5岁和3岁）的布拉德肖表示。“我经常要管理相互冲突的优先事项和重要事情。”

Some of this comes down to what Facebook's (FB) Sandberg calls "leaning in, " or seizing opportunities for advancement rather than being held back by fear of what the new responsibilities will mean for family life.

其中一些可归为Facebook桑德伯格所谓的“扩大影响圈”，或者抓住前进机会，不会因为担心新职责可能影响到家庭生活而迟疑。

Sandberg's message has been subject to criticism. Workplace experts fear that glossing over the real tensions and difficulties of balancing work and family life lets employers off the hook.

桑德伯格的讲法已遭到批评。职场专家们担心，平衡工作和家庭关系方面存在的切切实实的困难，粉饰这种困难可能会让雇主藉此撇清关系。

"Part of the answer is people taking ownership, but let's not lower the bar too far," says Jessica DeGroot, founder of ThirdPath, a nonprofit that supports men and women with their career paths. "Without more courageous people standing up, corporate America often asks too much of employees, and it's hurting marriages and families."
