They why are they being allowed to work for free?

Is that even legal in USA? Aren't they obligated by OSHA and USDOL to be paid for the time they work??

:O.

So US doesn't have paid overtime on a regular salary work?

Not if you're covered by the "white collar exemption", which any engineer-type is going to fall under. Folks working 80 hour weeks at startups don't get any overtime for it.
