Without knowing details of compensation you can't really say whether they've given their extra time at a rock bottom price or not.

For most employees, especially those commenting here, every hour above 40.0 is $0. It doesn't get much more rock bottom than that.

I don’t consider myself to be on an hourly wage. I’m on a salary. If I need to work more hours I work more hours, if that’s what it takes to get the job done.
