I'm in upper management, I'm salaried, and I did just that when I was hired two years ago. My boss said, "Great!". I told him I have notifications for GMail disabled 24/7, and that Slack only notifies me during work hours, M-F. He said, "Wonderful!". I'll take three days off mid-week to go camping in the backcountry and will tell him I'll be entirely out of service. He'll say, "Good for you!" in a genuine way.
It's literally never been a problem. I'll come in to the office, respond to messages received afterhours and nobody cares that it took me until my shift to get back to them.
I know plenty of other people who also don't have that pressure. Careful with your snark next time.
