Not getting paid for hours you've worked?
- by Mercfh
So I was reading from a previous thread about App vs Game Development
Here
Which brought me to this site: Clicky
Alot of it talked about devs working something like 85 hours a week.....and not getting paid overtime, or anything. Just getting paid for the 40 hours.....Is this normal for most software companies? I mean where I work im only an entry level guy....but I get overtime, and Anything over 40 hours is considered this. But it got me thinking "Holy crap" I could never do that. My FREE time is important to me. But is this commonplace in most software companies? or...more a rarity to certain types (game development, etc) Cause it got me scared!
Like I understand having to put some extra hours in for a project......but like 80! thats ridiculous.
