Are Coders Exempt From California's Overtime Laws?

Posted by Cliff on from the a-hole-in-the-loop dept.

Gizmo Kid asks: "How many of you Californian, full-time, software programmers are getting paid overtime? From what I understand, a law in California, passed within the last two years, says that software engineers who make less than $41/hour [PDF version] are required to be paid for overtime? Are your employers following the rules? I'm not sure mine is?"

    3 hours to write "Hello World" in Perl is normal?
