Do fast track workers who reduce their hours to accommodate family obligations stay on track, or do they become ineligible for top level promotions?

Are organizations and professions foregoing their most talented employees due to these high time demands and scheduling inflexibility?With the increase of women in these fast-track fields, these questions affect more workers, drawing new attention.
