In many places in the world developers are paid salary without overtime. (or similar) if you need to put in 80 hours one week, well sorry to say you're only getting paid for 40, and your code will likely be buggy and messy at the end because as you put in more and more time your work quality tends to degrade. (mental exhaustion) Luckily most companies tend to be reasonable where you work 40(ish) Except a few bad apples mostly in the gaming industry and startups | |
