But the CPU Act broadens that exemption so much it appears that any IT worker who is paid more than $27.63 an hour (and who isn’t?) would lose the right to overtime. Here’s what it says:
In other words, be careful that you don’t end up in a position where you think you are getting decent salary based on a 40-45 hour work week and then find out that your employer wants 50-60 hours per week.
As an aside, I don’t think that employers realize what happens when they take this approach.. i.e. that they increase the users and posts on sites such as Reddit.
