Yes, most software engineers have a 39h/week contract but get extra PTO instead (called RTT, about 10 days a year in addition to the legal 25).

I work 37.5h/week as a software engineer in London. Actually my current role is a lead role and I do end up working a little more than that, but it absolutely isn't required by my company.

  >but it absolutely isn't required by my company Is it needed to hit deadlines or to successfully do your duties as lead? Because it might not be required, but it ends up being expected.
