Even various FAANGs do something quite similar: overtime is allowed, unmetered and unpaid.
At the same time employees are [secretly] stack ranked and everybody knows that the expectation is to work 50 hours a week to survive in the company.
That's a 25% more work than 40 hours. Not a rounding error.
- munk-a 5y agoAt FAANGs (and in most other tech companies) employees are salaried so overtime is never required to be metered - this is different from hourly work which does require accounting of those hours. There is nothing legally stopping you from being asked to put in 60 hours for the same rate at Google - if you're on the receiving end of it you need to decide for yourself if it's worth it.
