I had monthly promotions ( pay) when shit hit the fan at my previous job because the CEO only sold ( a lot ) without planning and without taking normal hours into consideration. It's a dystopian feeling when you go Friday on 21:00-22:00 ( tired) and say to the boss: "we need to talk on Monday" and just leave the office a couple of times. ( I was also working on the weekends at home, had my laptop when I went swimming Sunday morning and when/if I went out fyi ). Those promotions were directly valued to the value outputted. And were then transferred to my new job with normal hours. Conclusion: it's not about the hours. It's at the value you create and that ( eg. For small companies) they can count on you more than someone else. But ofc. There is a limit, which is why i happily left my previous job. Fyi: To me, It seems so obvious when people are slacking. I get that people have an off day, but spending 8 hours and they don't even know yet which component they need to adjust is a no-brainer about their effort after working in that project for a year. ( When I saw that, we went to the html and there it is: the name of the angular component "<dp-setting-create>" -> 1 minute. Ugh)
