Well, I haven't worked at any places that expected me to work more than 50 hours a week. And none of even explicitly said an amount of hours.
But I have worked at places where there was extreme and contrived pressure to meet artificial goals set by managers with no engineering input. For example, I have worked at places that have stipulated no vacation without prior approval, and had multiple-month windows where vacation wasn't approved.
Most places I worked weren't like that, but a few were very unpleasant and not any more efficient for it.
