Absolutely not. Quite the contrary. If they are unhappy with this conditions (and they rightfully are), it seems like an opportunity to hire them and give them reasonable work hours.

I have met several Chinese programmers through out the years and was always impressed with their skills and work ethics.

I’m sorry to question your motives. Somehow I horribly misread the tone of your comment the first time around.
