- ianburrell 3y agoIn the US, where this company is located, software engineers are exempt from overtime rules. The exception is supposed to be for workers that control their hours and managers who control others. Software engineers are explicit exception. The manager exception was cresting problems for low-salary managers so they added salary limit which are talking about increasing.
- version_five 3y agoWe were "exempt" too in the sense that we didn't get paid o/t, but could also (at least by law) refuse to work more than a legislated maximum, either 40 or 44 I believe.
