It's understandable: You have conflicting obligations. But they're still not getting 100% of what they contracted for. Are they giving you 100% of your pay? I bet they are. If your employer has an ounce of humanity, they empathize with your situation, but they also have a business to run, and that involves empathizing with the clients too, as well as with all the other employees. | |

You are being told that you are expected to be at those, brainstorming sessions, and your absence likely has been noticed. | |
| Jun 26, 2017 at 18:09 | comment | added | Chris E | I think it's more than fair, imho. They may be sympathetic that you have problems to work around, but the reality is that they're not the company's problems. They're yours. Families do come first. To you. Not to the company. I think extending your probation was very kind. You should see it for what it is, a statement that they want to keep you but that you need to be available after hours. If that's not feasible for you, then you're not suited at that company. They could have just let you go but they want to give you a chance to decide if it's the right company for you. | |
