Fair, software engineers in tech hubs universally meet the $107k minimum salary threshold which means employers aren't required to pay overtime. That said, overtime is only expected in a few corners of the industry anyway, game development and pre-growth-stage startups being two of them. It's pretty easy to avoid those sectors if you want to maintain a 40-hour schedule. I've never been expected to put in overtime in my career, either in or out of FAANG.
