There is one question, in particular, you should "never" ask an employer, says Bert Bean, CEO of the staffing firm Insight Global: "What's the work-life balance for this role?"
With this question, he explains, "You risk sending the wrong message about your career aspirations to a future employer."
Asking hiring managers about the company's work-life balance can create an impression that you aren't engaged, reliable or committed to the role.
"Your future employer shouldn't dictate to you what your boundaries should be."
There are other ways to determine a company's approach to work-life balance outside of the interview.
